Following the tradition of SARM as the organiser of the astronomical camps Perseids, EuRo Eclipse 99 will take profit from the exceptional coincidence of the eclipse with the spectacular show of Perseids (11/12 and 12/13 August). Between 5-14 August 1999, SARM will organise a large international astronomical event, named EuRo Eclipse - Perseids 99. This will include the international astronomical meeting Total Solar Eclipse with Meteors in Targoviste, and two observational camps in the country side, on the line of centrality near the maximum point.
