I did probably read about this eclipse many years ago, checking an old book of mine I have in my bookshelf in my parent’s house, but I had then hidden the information too well to remember it. Also, some years ago, the possibility to attend an Eclipse in the Arctic was perhaps too remote to be worth being remembered. Not now, though.
Within a few days after that chat I had my flights
booked and booked, from New York City to Svalbard. Then I started planning my journey, during which I would have hopefully met the Sun and the Moon in the same spot of the sky.
Svalbard is an archipelago situated at about half way between continental Norway and the North Pole, and it is an outpost for research and exploration on the arctic. In Longyearbyen, a little city with a population of about 2000 and Svalbard capital, there is UNIS, University Center in Svalbard: this is the world’s northernmost institution for higher education and research.
