In July 1878, a total solar eclipse plunged the American frontier into darkness for barely three minutes. What followed was a collision of science and frontier chaos!
A gunslinger named Texas Jack fires a revolver through a Wyoming hotel window to impress a young Thomas Edison. Edison retreats to a drafty chicken coop to test a sensitive new invention against the solar corona. A world-famous astronomer stakes his entire career on the hunt for “Vulcan”—a phantom planet hiding in the sun’s glare that doesn’t actually exist. And in Denver, pioneering astronomer Maria Mitchell and her crew of Vassar graduates mount their telescopes to take on Victorian prejudices about women in science.
From the gale-force winds of Rawlins to frostbitten astronomers shivering atop Pikes Peak, join Amy McGraw on The Garden Astronomer for the story of the Great Eclipse of 1878.
