Which part of Nigeria will lunar eclipse be seen in August?

The lunar eclipse of August 6, 2009 will be a penumbral eclipse, meaning that the Moon will pass - partially! - through the outer, brighter layers of the Earth's shadow. While observers with the proper instruments would be able to view the eclipse throughout Africa, Europe or South America (and parts of southwestern Asia) the eclipse will not be generally visible to the naked eye. The most anyone will be able to see is a very slight dimming of the Sun's light shining on one side of the Moon. You can simulate this eclipse. Stand three bright lights a few inches apart; this will represent the Sun. Notice the amount of illumination visible on a small ball at the other end of the room; this represents the Moon. Turn off ONE of the lights. This represents the decrease in illumination caused by the penumbral eclipse. Look at the ball; not much difference, is there? Penumbral lunar eclipses generally are not visible.


How do you make a mask out of a styrofoam ball?

The one I've seen is a Mardi Gras mask. Cut a paper plate in half. Glue (or staple) a craft stick to the lower corner of the flat side. Cut a slot to look through. Cut a 3" (or so) Styrofoam ball in half, glue glitter or paint with glitter paint, glue to paper plate just above the slot, as two eyes. Hold mask in front of face. If desired, paint or glue other face features on mask. Staple two craft pipe cleaners to the top of the mask as antenna.I have also heard that some people use a large Styrofoam ball as a base to make a papermache mask, which is then removed.See also, "How do you make a mask out of a sheet of Styrofoam?"


A ball of ice and dust whose orbit is a long narrow eclipse?

That sounds like Pluto. But it's an ellipse, not an eclipse. It actually crosses Neptune's orbit for a bit during its rotation.


What is the order of alignment during a solar eclipse heading out toward the edge of the solar system?

In a solar eclipse there is the sun, the moon, and Earth. It looks like a halo around a ball of darkness.
