00:00:01.040 --> 00:00:04.519
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to the Doctor Sky Experience, heard exclusively here on

2
00:00:04.559 --> 00:00:08.640
<v Speaker 1>Talk Radio seventy seven WABC. We like to call this

3
00:00:08.800 --> 00:00:12.839
<v Speaker 1>radio station the crown Jewel of radio, the iconic seventy

4
00:00:12.880 --> 00:00:16.760
<v Speaker 1>seven Talk Radio WABC, beaming out of New York City,

5
00:00:16.800 --> 00:00:20.559
<v Speaker 1>the nation, the world, and the cosmos. As we continue

6
00:00:20.559 --> 00:00:23.760
<v Speaker 1>to count down the great eclipse, whether it's a partial

7
00:00:23.800 --> 00:00:27.039
<v Speaker 1>eclipse for you, are a total solar eclipse of April

8
00:00:27.239 --> 00:00:31.199
<v Speaker 1>eighth of this year, twenty twenty four, as we continue

9
00:00:31.280 --> 00:00:33.799
<v Speaker 1>to talk about these great events in the world of astronomy,

10
00:00:34.320 --> 00:00:37.600
<v Speaker 1>this particular edition, what we'll call is the New York

11
00:00:37.759 --> 00:00:40.920
<v Speaker 1>Edition for people listening to WABC in the New York

12
00:00:40.920 --> 00:00:44.640
<v Speaker 1>City area. Here's what you can expect for that particular day,

13
00:00:44.799 --> 00:00:49.119
<v Speaker 1>April eighth, twenty twenty four, in the New York City area.

14
00:00:49.280 --> 00:00:52.600
<v Speaker 1>There'll be at super deep partial solar eclipse. Ninety one

15
00:00:52.679 --> 00:00:55.240
<v Speaker 1>percent of the Sun will be covered by the moon.

16
00:00:55.679 --> 00:00:59.719
<v Speaker 1>And that eclipse begins at two ten pm Eastern daylight time,

17
00:01:00.240 --> 00:01:02.960
<v Speaker 1>with the maximum of the Sun covered at three twenty

18
00:01:02.960 --> 00:01:06.079
<v Speaker 1>four pm Eastern daylight time, and it all goes into

19
00:01:06.079 --> 00:01:08.920
<v Speaker 1>the history books as the eclipse goes in reverse at

20
00:01:08.920 --> 00:01:12.840
<v Speaker 1>four thirty six pm, eastern daylight time at three twenty

21
00:01:12.840 --> 00:01:16.079
<v Speaker 1>four and three twenty five PM, the sun will stand

22
00:01:16.120 --> 00:01:20.599
<v Speaker 1>some forty three degrees in hopeful clear skies. But why

23
00:01:20.640 --> 00:01:22.879
<v Speaker 1>not make the journey to the north and northwest of

24
00:01:22.920 --> 00:01:26.560
<v Speaker 1>New York City where totality would be experienced a very

25
00:01:26.719 --> 00:01:30.599
<v Speaker 1>rare event. Any total eclipse or eclipse that's over four

26
00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:34.599
<v Speaker 1>minutes is exceptional, particularly total eclipses, and at this eclipse

27
00:01:34.879 --> 00:01:38.120
<v Speaker 1>some five point five percent, that is, the moon will

28
00:01:38.159 --> 00:01:41.840
<v Speaker 1>be some five point five percent larger than normal at perigee.

29
00:01:42.599 --> 00:01:44.920
<v Speaker 1>We'll talk a little bit more about the details of

30
00:01:44.920 --> 00:01:47.799
<v Speaker 1>this particular eclipse, which for many in the New York

31
00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:50.920
<v Speaker 1>City area will simply be a ninety one percent eclipse.

32
00:01:51.599 --> 00:01:54.200
<v Speaker 1>Why not again journey to the north and northwest to

33
00:01:54.239 --> 00:01:58.439
<v Speaker 1>these particular cities. Totality will be experienced. In Buffalo, New

34
00:01:58.519 --> 00:02:02.000
<v Speaker 1>York at three twenty five you would get to see

35
00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:04.760
<v Speaker 1>with clear skies, with the sun forty five degrees high,

36
00:02:05.159 --> 00:02:09.639
<v Speaker 1>a total solar eclipse of three minutes and forty five seconds. Rochester,

37
00:02:09.759 --> 00:02:13.159
<v Speaker 1>New York, is also in the eclipse path, experiencing three

38
00:02:13.199 --> 00:02:16.960
<v Speaker 1>minutes and thirty seconds Syracuse, New York, as it's near

39
00:02:16.960 --> 00:02:20.159
<v Speaker 1>the edge of the totality line experiences a little more

40
00:02:20.240 --> 00:02:23.800
<v Speaker 1>than two minutes, and Watertown, New York, right off the

41
00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:27.599
<v Speaker 1>lake will experience some three minutes in thirty seven seconds

42
00:02:27.639 --> 00:02:31.919
<v Speaker 1>of totality with hopeful clear skies. Simply traveling north from

43
00:02:31.919 --> 00:02:34.599
<v Speaker 1>New York City to Plattsburgh, New York, you'll be deep

44
00:02:34.639 --> 00:02:37.879
<v Speaker 1>within the shadow of the moon at three twenty nine pm,

45
00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:41.800
<v Speaker 1>where three minutes and thirty seconds you would experience totality,

46
00:02:42.199 --> 00:02:45.840
<v Speaker 1>a rare event in astronomy. And now back to eclipses.

47
00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:50.599
<v Speaker 1>This particular eclipse, identified as a partial and total solar eclipse,

48
00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:54.479
<v Speaker 1>is part of a Cero cycle. A Cero cycle is

49
00:02:54.520 --> 00:02:58.400
<v Speaker 1>repetitive eclipses that happen over a period of eighteen years

50
00:02:58.439 --> 00:03:02.159
<v Speaker 1>and some change. This particular ceeros with this eclipse is

51
00:03:02.159 --> 00:03:06.159
<v Speaker 1>from Cero's cycle one thirty nine. It has seventy one eclipses,

52
00:03:06.199 --> 00:03:08.479
<v Speaker 1>and this eclipse is number thirty of the total of

53
00:03:08.560 --> 00:03:11.680
<v Speaker 1>seventy one. It began in the year fifteen oh one

54
00:03:11.759 --> 00:03:14.280
<v Speaker 1>a d and the last of those eclipses will take

55
00:03:14.319 --> 00:03:17.639
<v Speaker 1>place in the year twenty seven sixty three. If you

56
00:03:17.680 --> 00:03:20.400
<v Speaker 1>miss this particular eclipse, I'm talking about our fans who

57
00:03:20.479 --> 00:03:24.599
<v Speaker 1>journey into totality in upstate New York and areas up

58
00:03:24.599 --> 00:03:27.520
<v Speaker 1>in the areas of Vermont and New Hampshire. The next

59
00:03:27.560 --> 00:03:30.039
<v Speaker 1>total solar eclipse in the United States that could be

60
00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:33.080
<v Speaker 1>seen will occur on August twelfth of twenty forty five.

61
00:03:33.879 --> 00:03:36.479
<v Speaker 1>That eclipse will scan itself with the darker the moon

62
00:03:36.520 --> 00:03:39.319
<v Speaker 1>from California, sweeping across the central part of the United

63
00:03:39.319 --> 00:03:43.120
<v Speaker 1>States and moving off the coast of Florida. That eclipse

64
00:03:43.159 --> 00:03:46.039
<v Speaker 1>is incredible. It will have a totality that lasts six

65
00:03:46.080 --> 00:03:48.960
<v Speaker 1>minutes and six seconds, best seen off the coast of

66
00:03:49.000 --> 00:03:52.919
<v Speaker 1>Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and over by Nassau in the Bahamas.
