McGlaun’s Total Solar Eclipse Page
"Meet Dan McGlaun: "I am a total, complete eclipse junkie. I go to every total solar eclipse I can, which after the turn of the century won’t be too many, unfortunately. But I’ve had a pretty good decade in the 1990s, and I thought I’d write a sort of memoir-type book of my experiences." Although he’s not a professional astronomer, Dan has a way of conveying his enthusiasm for the subject. Read the stories from his seven eclipse treks, and stay tuned for his dispatches from Turkey, where he will be celebrating both the total solar eclipse and his thirty-sixth birthday!"

Mars Travel Planner
"It’s your job to put Pathfinder on Mars. But before you press the launch button, here’s a hint. Picking the right launch date so that Earth and Mars line-up correctly is important. When was the real Pathfinder launched? You can find the answer by searching this CNN site with the seek button just below the game console. Next, figure out the velocity needed to escape the Earth’s gravitational pull. Go ahead, give it a try. <!--"
