A solar eclipse is caused by this?

A solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes between the Sun and the Earth so that the Sun is fully or partially covered. This can only happen during a new moon, when the Sun and Moon are in conjunction as seen from the Earth. At least two and up to five solar eclipses can occur each year on Earth, with between zero and two of them being total eclipses.[1] Total solar eclipses are nevertheless rare at any location because during each eclipse totality exists only along a narrow corridor in the relatively tiny area of the Moon's umbra. A total solar eclipse is a spectacular natural phenomenon and many people travel to remote locations to observe one. The 1999 total eclipse in Europe helped to increase public awareness of the phenomenon, as illustrated by the number of journeys made specifically to witness the 2005 annular eclipse and the 2006 total eclipse. The most recent solar eclipse occurred on January 26, 2009, and was an annular eclipse.


When did the last five solar eclipses take place and where could they be seen from?

There are generally two solar eclipses each year. About a quarter of these are total, another quarter are annular, and the remainder are partial eclipses, depending on the precise alignment of the Earth and the Moon. You can look up the details for any eclipse, solar or lunar, from 2000 BC to 3000 AD on the NASA Eclipse Site at http://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclipse.html. For the areas outside of the annular and total paths, large surrounding areas will also experience a partial eclipse. January 26, 2009: An annular eclipse visible only across the Indian Ocean and Indonesia. August 1, 2008: A total solar eclipse visible across northern Canada, Greenland and northern Russia and into China. February 7, 2008: An annular eclipse visible only in Antarctica. September 11, 2007: A partial solar eclipse visible in South America and Antarctica. March 19, 2007: a partial solar eclipse visible in eastern Asia and Alaska.
