Hi all,
I just got this message from a journalist. What are the chances of seeing
satellites during a total eclipse? Has anyone seen one? If it's possible,
perhaps I'll add a page for the eclipse coming up in August this year.

Dear Chris Peat,
as a journalist I am currently writing about the total solar eclipse in
August. Do you know if the eclipse will make visible any satellites that
would otherwise be invisivible? Is the satellite watchers' community
preparing for the eclipse?

Best and thank you
