2008 eclipse in Nunavut, Canada by Mark Sukhija

By: Mark Sukhija

The 1st August 2008 total solar eclipse will be visible from parts of Nunavut in Canada.

Nunavut is probably the most inaccessible part of the the 2008 eclipse path. Totality passes to the west of Cambridge Bay, which itself will only experience a partial eclipse. Somerset Island, northern King William Island, northern Boothia, Somerset Island and large sections (but not all) of Devon Island and the eastern and southern coastal areas of Ellesmere Island will experience totality. Mars Camp (Devon Island) and Grise Fiord (Ellesmere Island) are both on the line of totality.
