A picture caption on Tuesday about an annular solar eclipse visible in parts of Europe and Africa misstated the last time such an event occurred, and a correction in this space yesterday was also erroneous. According to the solar eclipse page of NASA's Web site (http://sunearth.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclipse/solar.html) it was May 31, 2003--not 200 years ago and not in 1994.
