Maps of Solar Eclipses from 1925 to 1929
During this decade, two eclipses were widely observed in North America and Europe.
The total solar eclipse of 1925 January 24 swept over New England and the southern limit line of eclipse bisected New York City. That day in New York was bitterly cold but brilliantly clear and the eclipse thrilled many lucky citizens.
Two years later, a total solar eclipse traversed Great Britain and Norway on 1927 June 29. This event was widely anticipated and many persons boarded trains to the zone of totality for a chance to see this eclipse. Unfortunately, most of Wales and England was cloudy that day, but an eclipse party at Giggleswick which included the Astronomer Royal, Sir Frank Dyson, had splendid luck in spying 27 seconds of totality. This was the first total solar eclipse over the UK since 1724, as related in Sheridan Williams’ book UK Eclipses from 1 to 3000 AD.
