SUMMARY:Dr Toner Stevenson ‘Eclipse Chasers: astronomical observations in Australia and the Pacific’

This talk will focus on the Eclipse Chasers book written by Nick Lomb and Toner Stevenson with contributing authors Duane Hamacher\, Uncle Ghillar Michael Anderson\, Melissa Hulbert\, Geoffrey Wyatt and Kirsten Banks. Published by CSIRO\, the book is about uniquely Australian eclipses\, beginning with First Nations experiences. Results from the very recent eclipse in Western Australia will conclude the talk. Toner is happy to sign copies of her book. \nBiography\nToner Stevenson is an honorary History affiliate at The University of Sydney where she manages the School of Humanities. She has a Doctorate in Social Sciences and her career in museums included Manager of Sydney Observatory. Toner is active in amateur astronomy and she has experienced seven total solar eclipses. \n \nPhoto: Miriam and Frank Chisholm on their way to the 1922 eclipse \nBooking\nLunchtime talks are held at 12.30 pm every Thursday from February to November.
