Scientific paper

A total eclipse of the Sun is one of the most spectacular phenomena of nature, and it provides a unique venue to gather valuable measurements of the Sun's corona that cannot otherwise be obtained. Since the time of the first American expedition to observe the 1780 eclipse during the American Revolutionary War-with the British granting the observation vessel safe passage to Maine's Penobscot Bay-the U.S. government has had a history of supporting scientific expeditions to remote eclipse sites under difficult conditions. A recent expedition to Libya to observe and study the 29 March 2006 eclipse continues that tradition.
