Letter: Letters: Sun block

Published 2 March 1991

From JOHN PARKINSON

Ariadne (9 February) need have no worries about observing the total
solar eclipse on 11 July 1991. Before crossing Mexico the track of totality
passes over the Big Island of Hawaii where the duration of totality will
be four minutes. There are very good prospects for clear skies and excellent
hotel accommodation is still available within a couple of kilometres of
the centre line. I will be happy to provide details.
