Having studied the solar corona and its radio emissions sunspot cycles ago, I was keen to verify its existence optically during the total solar eclipse of Wednesday, 4 December 2002, the first on Australian soil since 1976. The moon's shadow was to travel from the south-Atlantic west of The Congo, across southern Africa, the Indian Ocean and into the Great Australian Bight, finally making Australian landfall at Ceduna, South Australia (SA). ... The favoured site to observe the eclipse was Ceduna. ...
