CLEMSON, South Carolina – Clemson University scientist Donald Liebenberg has personally witnessed and researched 26 total solar eclipses over the past 60-plus years.
Liebenberg, who has been an adjunct professor in the College of Science’s department of physics and astronomy since 1996, has travelled literally all over the world to enter the path of totality of solar eclipses. He has studied them from the ground, on ships in the middle of oceans, and in airplanes. He even watched one eclipse from the cabin of a Concorde supersonic airliner, where he was able to remain within the window of totality for an astounding 74 minutes.
An eclipse on Nov. 3, 2013, over Uganda, was Liebenberg’s 24th eclipse. On March 20, 2015, over the Faroe Islands of Denmark, was his 25th. And on March 9, 2016, aboard a cruise ship near Indonesia, was his 26th.
All told, Liebenberg has spent more than two and a half hours in totality, which surpasses anyone else on Earth.
