Today a total solar eclipse will be visible, weather permitting, across much of the eastern United States, the last total eclipse visible in the contiguous United States until 2044. Here in Central Oregon, we will see a partial eclipse. At our office location in Bend, the eclipse will begin at 10:30am, peak at 11:25am with 26.1% coverage, and end at 12:22pm. Always use appropriate eye protection when viewing an eclipse and never look directly at the sun. You can learn more from NASA and the National Solar Observatory.
If you weren’t able to make the trip east to view totality, please enjoy this throwback image from our own Central Oregon total solar eclipse experience on August 21, 2017 as viewed from Camp Sherman.
