Steve and Connor Hickton took the same UVic astronomy course 20 years apart
In search of the clearest skies possible, two B.C. residents will make the trek to Texas chasing the path of a full solar eclipse on April 8.
“I thought it was complete overkill what I was doing, but whenever we hit a major road it was swamped so we were doing the right thing,” Connor said. So they settled on San Antonio where Steve biked through when he was Connor’s age, 25. The path of the eclipse cuts through the city, but like last time, they have to get out of town a bit early to get the best bang for their buck.
Connor subscribed to a cloud cover app to find clearest possible skies and they’ll again stick to back roads while finding a site to enjoy the event.Steve admitted it seems like a long way to go for just a few minutes, but even the time leading up to it are interesting.
