Eclipse chasing is apparently very popular, and given the relatively remote location of the best viewing in August 2008 (West of Mongolia, NW China and Siberia), its worth booking as soon as possible. If you’re interested in seeing the Moon blot out the Sun, that is!

There are also a couple of other tours which are focused on other astronomical phenomena: a total eclipse of the Moon in Cuba in 2008 and a viewing of the Perseid Meteor shower in the Azores in August 2007.

Hopefully we can get an interview and a little more detail about these tours for April.
