The Total Solar Eclipse 1905 by Frederick William Levander Pdf

Excerpt from The Total Solar Eclipse 1905: Reports of Observations Made by Members of the British Astronomical Association of the Total Solar Eclipse of 1905, August 30 For several months previous to the solar eclipse of last year, efforts had been made by the British Astronomical Association to organise an expedition to observe it at some suitable place on the central line of totality, as had been done on several previous occasions. In the arrangement of such an expedition so many factors have to be taken into consideration that it becomes a matter of very great difficulty. One of the most important points to be determined in the choice of a place for observation is the probable state of the weather at the time of the eclipse. This involves the careful study of meteorological reports for preceding years. When an apparently suitable place has been selected, the means of conveying thither a body of observers and their instruments must he considered together with the probable expenses. It is only then that the director of the proposed expedition can put forward a feasible plan and enter upon the next difficulty - that of learning who will form the expedition. The difficulties, indeed, commence with the inception of the design and do not end even with the return of the expedition. A skilled director, therefore, and one accustomed to eclipse work is necessary to organise such an expedition. Such a one was found in the person of Mr. E. Walter Maunder, whose experience in eclipse observations is almost unique. After many inquiries it was determined to make Burgos the head-quarters of the expedition. Shortly before the eclipse, however, Mr. Maunder was invited, together with Mrs. Maunder, by Sir Wilfrid Laurier, Prime Minister of Canada, to join the expedition which the Dominion Government was sending out to Labrador, and Mr. C. Thwaites, who had observed several total solar eclipses, undertook to act in his place and lead the expedition to Burgos. This town is situated about 140 miles north of Madrid on a plateau feet above the sea, and almost exactly on the central line. The duration of totality was 3 458. But there were some Members of the Association who. Preferred to observe the eclipse from a ship's deck. After a considerable amount of trouble an arrangement was made by Mr. G. F. Chambers for those Members and their friends who desired it to proceed on board the s.s. Arcadia, whose owners, .
