International Alien Abduction Day Today, March 20th, is “International Tiki Alien Abduction Day”. This year, I’m hosting the Texas Aggie exchange student from Roswell, New Mexico. He waived his hand in front of me and told me there is no such thing as aliens. Then he told me that “These are not the Tiki Gnomes you’re looking for.” Of course they weren’t. I was looking for different Tiki Gnomes!
Annular Solar Eclipse - Ring of FIre I think these images of the annular eclipse look more like bullseyes. They were the best part of experiencing the not-quite-total eclipse in Roswell.
SolarEclipse_20231014_2b The Great Annular Eclipse of 2023 Composite of 5 images captured from 16:37 to 16:45 UTC. This image shows the progression of the eclipse from bottom left to top right. The 2nd image in the sequence shows 2nd contact (C2) at the beginning of annularity, and the 4th (towards the upper right) shows C3. The elusive Baily's beads effect seen in both is caused by sunlight shining through some parts of the rough lunar terrain (craters, mountains, valleys, etc.), creating a "string of beads" along the lunar limb. This is the first of many upcoming posts from my grand adventure to New Mexico with my best friend, Grace. After I flew to DFW, we drove out west to set up under the pristine dark skies of the Cosmic Campground in Gila National Forest, an international dark sky sanctuary. The next day, we drove back east and stopped at the NRAO VLA (Very Large Array) in central NM. And finally, we set up for the eclipse in the Salt Creek Wilderness just 1.5 miles away from the centerline, giving us a near-perfect ring of fire during totality.

SolarEclipse_20231014_1 The Great Annular Eclipse of 2023 This image shows the first few moments of third contact (C3) as the leading edge of the moon crosses beyond the sun's disk at the end of annularity. The elusive Baily's beads effect in the lower left is caused by sunlight shining through some parts of the rough lunar terrain (craters, mountains, valleys, etc.), creating a "string of beads" along the lunar limb. From our location near the centerline of the eclipse, this effect was only visible for a few seconds on either side of annularity.
