View detailed information about solar eclipses in this innovative KML.

Anyone who has witnessed a solar eclipse knows how spectacular the event is. In this very detailed KML, Xavier Jubier shows where and when each stage of the eclipse took place by using lines to show the paths taken. Detailed data showing co-ordinate and time information is also included inside the placemark description bubbles. We thoroughly enjoyed exploring this fascinating look at solar eclipses; past, present and future.
