The exhibition E3 – Einstein, Eddington and the Eclipse <\/strong>– focused on historical aspects of the expeditions which brought Eddington and his companions Cottingham, Davidson and Crommelin to the island of Pr\u00edncipe and  to Sobral, Brazil. It focuses on the unlikely encounter between Einstein and Eddington, the preparations of the expeditions in a time of war, the voyages, the observations and the impact of these expeditions on the national and international community of  astronomers, and also on the general public. It pays particular attention to the role of institutions, astronomers and experts in Lisbon, Portugal.<\/p>\r\n

From 16th of May  and 8th of September of 2019<\/strong> it was on display to the public at the University of Lisbon Museum of  Natural History and Science (MUNHAC)<\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n

The opening coincided with the release of the emission of CTT (Portuguese Post) postal stamps alluding to the centenary of the eclipse observations of 19th of May 1919 . See footage of this session in this video<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n
