Tonight there's a total solar eclipse, and one of the best places in the world to view it is Ceduna in South Australia. In fact, this is the first total solar eclipse to occur over Australia in over 26 years. Banger sent in this page which has information and will begin a streaming webcast of the eclipse, from Ceduna, later this evening. Beginning at 7:15 pm Australian Central Daylight Saving Time (ACDT), on the evening of 4 December, CSIRO will broadcast live from Ceduna images of the eclipsing Sun, culminating in the total eclipse at 7:40 pm ACDT (09:10 UTC).
Remember, if you are viewing the solar eclipse personally, don't look directly at the sun! Also, don't use any optical instruments such as binoculars or telescopes to look directly at the sun. The CSIRO have information on safely viewing a solar eclipse on their website.
