In the year 1846, there will be only two eclipses; both of the Sun, one of which will be visible in the United States, and the other invisible. I. Saturday, April 25th. An annular and total Eclipse of the Sun, partially visible in the United States. Beginning of the general eclipse at Sh. 54.3m. M. [Mean Time at Washington,] in latitude 6° 15' South, and longitude 119° 40′ West of Greenwich. Beginning of the annular eclipse at 9h. 55.2m. M. in latitude 2° 11′ S. and longitude 135° 51' W. of Greenwich. + Beginning of the total eclipse at 10h. 8.9m. M. in latitude 2° 0' N. and longitude 113° 9' West of Greenwich. Central eclipse at Noon, at 11h. 47.8m. M. in latitude 25° 21' N. and longitude 74° 31' West of Greenwich. † End of the total eclipse at 1h. 12.5m. A. in latitude 30° 32' N. and longitude 34° 14' West of Greenwich. End of the annular eclipse at 1h. 29.5m. A. in latitude 24° 56′ N. and longitude 3° 43' West of Greenwich. End of the general eclipse at 2h. 30.4m. A. in latitude 20° 52′ N., and longitude 20° 4' West of Greenwich. This eclipse will be visible throughout Mexico, Texas, the United States, Canada, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, Central America, the regions of South America north of the Equator, the West India Islands, the south of Greenland, Iceland, Great Britain, France, Spain, Holland, the Netherlands, and the north-western portion of Africa. Being a large eclipse in both Europe and America, it will be exceedingly valuable for determining the relative longitudes of places upon the two continents. The total eclipse will pass over the north of Guatemala, and across the island of Cuba; and the central line will pass over the following points on the earth's surface: The change of the central eclipse from the annular to the total phase is not distinctly mentioned in the Nautical Almanac; but the marks upon the chart in that work show that this most obvious fact was not overlooked by the computers of that Almanac. |
