Abstract
THE PARTIAL SOLAR ECLIPSE OF MARCH 28.—This eclipse is a successor, after twelve lunations, of the large eclipse of last April. On this occasion the central line has moved southwards, crossing Brazil and the Sahara. The whole of the British Isles enjoy a partial eclipse, the magnitude of which diminishes from 0.20 at Greenwich to zero at the Shetlands. At Greenwich the eclipse begins at 1.19 P.M. at the lowest point of the disc, attains its greatest phase at 2.15, and ends at 3.8. The only observations of importance that can be made are the timing of the contacts and the watch for lunar mountains at the edge of the moon.
