All twelve elementary schools in Muncie, Indiana were prepared to complete Star Counts and Record information on the color. The weather did not cooperate. Muncie, Indiana was in the path of the rain and cloud cover in the storm that passed over the midwest. For a brief moment we saw the eclipse in black & white in between clouds. David Levy joined us on the campus of Ball State University to observe the eclipse. He called his fiance during the eclispe. She had beautiful weather! David Levy was the first speaker featured in the BSU Provost Lecture Series this year. What a night tohave David Levy speak!! The provost invited selected area Schools and College staff members to the dinner prior to David's Presentation. An unexpected treat, we were all invited to the BSU Planetarium for COMETS ARE COMING. David Levy wrote the Script. Sorry that we do not have Star Counts to report at this time due to the poor weather. We had a real treat with David Levy in Muncie, Indiana!! I am reporting the Star Counts of all you lucky people that had good viewing weather. Our students are interested in what the counts were from other cities in the country We enjoyed this project!
