Eclipse of Moon Visible to Kansans But 'Blacks Out' New Yorkers
--planetarium in NY.
it had been a "black eclipse" when means that during the total eclipse the moon could not be seen at all.
They said it was the first such eclipse in the past 100 years.
The bright lights of the city must have blinded New Yorkers when they viewed the recent eclipse of the moon, N. W. Storer, associate professor of astronomy, believes.
On April 13, the day following the eclipse, officials of the Hayden planetarium in New York city released a story on the eclipse stating that it had been a "black eclipse", which*
"I'm sure this is not true. The moon was easily visible at all times during the eclipse. I know, I watched it," Professor Storer said. "And there is no reason for any difference because of location. We in Kansas see the same moon as those in New York." he added.
About the only explanation Professor Storer could give for the New York story is that it may have been a little hazy above the planetarium, and that the bright lights of the city obscured the vision of those observing the eclipse.
