Next total for Victoria is 200 years away, and next solar in 2018. Looks like October 1976 was a special experience.....except for our Scottish terrier who was scared sh!tless.

Got an app called Star Walk for the iPad. Pretty cool, you hold it up to the sky and it shows you the constellations, stars, planets, asteroids, man-made satellites and other objects of interest in the direction you're pointing. Cost $3.

:hihi. Yeah, 'partial eclipse of the heart' wouldnt have had the same ring for Bonnie Tyler would it?
Total eclipse in Exmouth WA today. For those in Melbourne, we can get to see a small darkening of the sun at 2:09pm.

All eyes will be on the Ningaloo region for the astronomical event but gazers in other states will experience a partial eclipse
