Summary: For five years, NASA has called this celebration of solar eclipses and the sun-earth connection, Sun Earth Day. Sun Earth Day normally occurs around the spring equinox in March, and celebrates the connection between the earth and sun through scientific research and descriptions of ancient cultural knowledge. The first in a series of NASA podcasts that will explore Solar eclipses, and how humans have studied them for millennia. These podcasts will connect you to the cultural history, math and science behind solar eclipses, and why we still find them so exciting to watch today. Get ready to experience the March 29, 2006 total Solar eclipse live from Side, Turkey, through an online webcast!
