                yes, they will be able to see a good chunk bit out of the sun with the solar filter or solar glasses.

                          i thought the ecliptic was a path further south. does latitude have any effect? thanks josef!

                            yes, it was nice. i’ve never noticed Mars (or any planet) so far off the ecliptic and wondered if there was a particular reason why? has it something to do with higher latitudes?
