According to an ancient Korean myth, fire dogs sent by a power hungry king attempt to steal the fiery sun or ice cold moon. When they bite either orb, an eclipse results. But on August 21st, as parts of the United States are treated to a total solar eclipse, astronomers all over the country will not be searching for these creatures. Instead, they shall be taking part in experiments to try to understand the plasma around the Sun, the Earth’s atmosphere and the ability of life to survive beyond Earth. Researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine will be analyzing data gathered during one such experiment.
About 70 percent of the sun will be blocked when the eclipse reaches its maximum in Ithaca. The eclipse is expected to begin at 1:17 p.m., will reach its maximum at 2:38 p.m. and will end at 3:54 p.m.
