Equinox signals balance From Staff Reports With the arrival of the autumnal equinox comes the only moment of the year when eggs can be stood on end, some people believe. The moment of the equinox will occur at 8:45 a.m. Wednesday when the sun, moving southemly, crosses the celestial equator, bring ing autumn to our hemisphere, said Don Taylor, associate professor of physics and astronomy. During this day, there will be an equal amount of light and dark ness, he said. “There will be less than average sunlight from then on,” Taylor said. The belief that equinox’s mo ment of balance causes all forces in the solar system to become equal, therefore allowing for egg balanc ing, is superstition, he said. I Legend says the actual day this feat can be performed is during the vernal equinox in March, he said. Taylor said that neither equinox is necessary to balance eggs up right. “ Y ou can balance eggs anytime, depending on how hard you try,” Taylor said. According to an Associated Press story, one scientist found he Paul Vonderlage/Daily Nebraskan could balance eggs during the equinox, and at other times as well. “The upshot is that, as far as I can tell, there isn’t too much rela tionship between astronomical phenomena and balancing eggs,” said Frank D. Ghigo, the astrono mer who published his results on the matter recently. “It is basically a function of the shape of the egg and the surface,” he said.
