1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 1: We are crossing to Sherry Lee Biggs, who is in Exmouth.

2
00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:09,880
Speaker 2: Hello, Hello, good morning guys. How are you going good?

3
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:11,840
Speaker 1: Have you got your specs on? Are you ready?

4
00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:16,880
Speaker 2: I've got them handy. Not looking at the sun just yet.

5
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:20,480
Speaker 2: Gorgeous day here in ex Mouth, I'll tell you that much.

6
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:23,040
Speaker 2: The weather has signed out perfectly. There was a bit

7
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:28,080
Speaker 2: of cloud around actually yesterday, and there still is a touch,

8
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:30,800
Speaker 2: very light little bit, but it seems to be staying

9
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,400
Speaker 2: well away from where we will be looking. So we're

10
00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:36,640
Speaker 2: hoping it stays that way because we didn't want to

11
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,920
Speaker 2: come all this way to have a cloud. Absolutely not

12
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:42,560
Speaker 2: want to spoil the inventor. It's pretty rare now, Sherley,

13
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 2: what's the vibe like? Can you set the scene for

14
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 2: us in x Mouth? Ah, it's just been look, I mean,

15
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:49,960
Speaker 2: it's just been filling up here in ex Mouth over

16
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,199
Speaker 2: the last few days. When we first got here, we

17
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:55,040
Speaker 2: kind of thought, oh my gosh, we have we overcooked this,

18
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,680
Speaker 2: you know, But in the last couple of days, honestly,

19
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 2: the hordes of people have just been coming in here

20
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 2: and I mean, you know, I knew this was going

21
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:07,319
Speaker 2: to be a huge event, but to actually chat to

22
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:11,400
Speaker 2: people who are so passionate about this as well. I've

23
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 2: never seen one. I've never seen in the clip. For me,

24
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 2: this is going to be a first time experience, and

25
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:20,480
Speaker 2: I've been told that. You know, people get emotional, you

26
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 2: know that this can be quite like a life changing experience.

27
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,840
Speaker 2: People are going to be crying. So I'm really interested

28
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,320
Speaker 2: to see how I'm going to react to it because

29
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 2: I'm a big stook at the best of times, but

30
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 2: collectively around everyone. So we've got a great spot here.

31
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 2: We're at the Kalas site, so they've set up this

32
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 2: fantas I'm in vi P today. Did you say, yeah, Kyless,

33
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 2: hopefully there's a bit of sea floating around.

34
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 1: You get a cry.

35
00:01:58,680 --> 00:01:59,559
Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely.

36
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 1: I mean I don't think you'd overcooked it because I

37
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 1: heard that Exmouth basically had been booked out accommodation style

38
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: for years as people knew this was coming. Do you

39
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,959
Speaker 1: know how many people have log from overseas and how

40
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: many elbow patches on jackets are you seeing? Because that's

41
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:19,799
Speaker 1: how you spot the NASA people.

42
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 2: That is how you've got them. Look, I've heard quite

43
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 2: a few numbers. Tomo's the one that's that's watching as

44
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 2: the numbers.

45
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:28,360
Speaker 1: He's got the coundo.

46
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 2: I've heard twenty thousand people to ex Mouth, I know.

47
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 2: And we've got all the daytime visitors as well that

48
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 2: are flying in uterually just for this. They'll be sipped

49
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 2: in here to the Kalas site. So the number of people, Yeah,

50
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 2: they fly in fire our Fi fi e clipped chases

51
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 2: and then they're off again, leaving us with the mess.

52
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:54,959
Speaker 2: But no, there's so many events on here as well,

53
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 2: So it's just been a huge buzz in town. Chatting

54
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 2: to the locals as well, they've never seen anything like

55
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 2: Boos before. So the music concert, you know, there's a

56
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,959
Speaker 2: huge food event. Someone to another little seafood barbecue last night,

57
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:13,520
Speaker 2: and it's just all around exactly exactly. It's a wonderful

58
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:19,079
Speaker 2: drone show tonight as well. It was in Coral Bay yesterday. Honestly,

59
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 2: it's too much. Stephen Cover, Sure, we'll do our best

60
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 2: for the.

61
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 1: Rest of us are stuck back here in Perth. Apparently

62
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,360
Speaker 1: you may have more information. Apparently we get seventy percent.

63
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 2: You do, yes, you get gen this. I mean, look

64
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 2: that's pretty good. You didn't get to ex Now school.

65
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 2: And that's also there's some great events on in Perth.

66
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 2: I know Jack was at Jagan's Square last night where

67
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 2: they'll be hosting an event there as well. But something

68
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 2: interesting that I actually didn't realize as well. I found

69
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 2: out along the way, But it makes so much sense.

70
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 2: It's that you get a big temperature drop as well,

71
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 2: you know. Being the little weather n I am hiring

72
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 2: the totality. You know, without the rays of the sun,

73
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 2: the warmth of the sun, it can drop by five

74
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 2: to ten degrees. And I know in Perth that it'll

75
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 2: be around twenty four at the time of the eclipse,

76
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 2: but that could drop by up to ten degrees. So

77
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 2: I'm actually take something warm with you because in Melbourne, yeah,

78
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 2: they'll be under a minute of a bit of a chill.

79
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 2: You know, they've got plenty of glasses up there and

80
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 2: up there in next mouth you go. They both hooked

81
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:33,919
Speaker 2: us up. Yeah, she's hooked us up with NASA glasses

82
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 2: because they did a great story about some research they're

83
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 2: doing and a kite they've launched into the sky to

84
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 2: gather some data, and she came back with NASA ones.

85
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:48,279
Speaker 2: They see me on screen, us on some genuine NASA glasses.

86
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,839
Speaker 2: We are running out, but I'm very impressed.

87
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:53,600
Speaker 1: We're running out of time. But Sherry, there's one thing

88
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 1: that I really really really want to ask because we

89
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 1: hear so much about don't look at it and if

90
00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 1: you don't look through things, and it's pinhole cameras and stuff,

91
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 1: but your camera die. What is do you have to

92
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 1: film it in a special way?

93
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:10,600
Speaker 2: Can they not look They've got solar lenses? Okay, taking

94
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,720
Speaker 2: a live walk because we're taking it at a time

95
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 2: and date, live speed, so they've got the better cameras

96
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 2: than us for this type of thing. So we're taking

97
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 2: a live feed. So if you're in Perth you've never

98
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 2: seen an eclipse before, you're going to see it live

99
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 2: right here from x Now. The best spot in the

100
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 2: world to see the special lenses is the key.

101
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 1: Okay, that's the technical words.

102
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 2: Don't look at that went in doubt. Go for the seafood.

103
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, thanks go
