WE OBSERVE, FILM, PHOTOGRAPH AND STUDY SOLAR AND LUNAR ECLIPSES.

WHY? FIRSTLY, THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL EVENTS TO WITNESS, BUT THE ADVENTURE HAS EVOLVED OVER THE LAST 23 YEARS!

NOW, WE HAVE A STATEMENT TO MAKE!

OUR NEW FILM: JEHOVAH’S WATCH, tells the story of the complete journey and the surprising conclusion!

BEGINNING IN 1999 with my first Total Solar Eclipse through to the present, follow the adventures….

ONE HIGHLIGHT WAS TO WITNESS THE SINGULAR TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE ABOVE EASTER ISLAND…….

In 2010, Mark Bender along with scientists Jay Pasachoff and Fred Espanek worked to create the "near live" Easter Island Eclipse television special for the National Geographic Channel.  

 

Our Mission

Our mission changed dramatically in 2018, about a year and half after the Eclipse Across America when the 20 years of eclipse observations, documentation and study combined with a 10 year study of Bible Prophecy. The conclusion was as surprising as it is Revelatory! Check out the latest blog post in the NEWS section for more information.


Bender & team are a part of a unique international group of adventurers that pursue eclipse events to share not only the scientific aspects but the thrilling knowledge that all eclipse witnesses experience: that we are all a part of the same planet and blessed with opportunities that we can hardly imagine!
