I think the theory is if the moon grazes along the edge of the sun you may see Bailey Beads, it is near the edge longer, away from center line. The event is different from different locations, of course you sacrifice duration of max eclipse on the edge.
Everyone will be at the edge of annularity at third contact, isn't that
right? Thanks, Joe

Bailey Beads can be seen in an annular if you are near the edge of annularity, perhaps at Great Basin.
Watson miscalculated?  Can we trust nothing anymore? Must we stumble
through the darkness without a guide?  No chance of corona, bailey beads and forget I mentioned the diamond ring. 93% coverage still leaves plenty of sun.  _______________________________________________ Utah-Astronomy mailing list http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/utah-astronomy
