Yesterday - Where in the World?

Maybe you noticed there was no post here on the blog yesterday. And were wondering why. Well, I was trying to catch the first solar eclipse of 2006. Alas, couldn't quite get "down there" in time. Down in this case being Brazil, where the eclipse started before heading generally northeast all the way to Mongolia. You can read all about it at NASA's page specifically for this eclipse. From there, you can also find out about upcoming eclipses.
