The Swinburne Centre for Astrophysics & Supercomputering, in conjunction with Geoff Dudley of Swinburne Learning & Teaching Support, had hoped to provide a live webcast of the eclipse, but unfortunately this will not be possible. Instead we recommend the CSIRO webcast live from Ceduna. Geoff is currently at Ceduna with a digital recorder & camera (and scope holder rings generously provided by the Binocular & Telescope Service Centre) and we will publish his recording a few days after the eclipse, so stay turned!
