Hi Breanna,
<!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> I will travel to Cairo Egypt for a solar physics meeting. I’ll be there on
the day of the eclipse, but Cairo is more than 600 kilometers east from the path of the total solar
eclipse. I haven’t decided whether I’ll go 600 km for the total eclipse
right now. But I’ll at least see a partial one. However, a total eclipse is far
more amazing. I was actually lucky enough to see one several years ago in 1999
(I think, got check on that.) It is definitely worth seeing, it’s like nothing
else in the world. By the way, there will be one in 2009 in China, which is predicted to last longer than 6 minutes.
