Total Solar Eclipse at Ceduna, South Australia

moooooooo writes "The total Solar Eclipse on December 4 is fast approaching with Ceduna in South Australia being one of the better places to observe this rare event. Accomodation was thought to have been booked out but a new site has been set up where you can find more information on the event. Information can be found here and accomodation info is at the bottom of the page. I heard on the radio that they will be setting up a "tent city" for those of us who want to camp out." There's a very impressive eclipse page describing the orbital conditions necessary for an eclipse and listing solar and lunar eclipses coming up.

Are you suggesting that the eclipse will cause *more* harmful radiation to reach Earth? Why?

I understand that the moon may not block much, if any, but surely it can't amplify the radiation.
