You can study the gravitational force the sun excerts on light of other stars by comparing their position in daytime during the eclipse and a night. Einstein's General Theory of Relativity was proved in this way.
When a solar eclipse happens the moon is in front of the sun. So you see the shadow of the moon you do not see the reflection of the sunlight though. The only thing you see is the shadow of the moon and the sun's corona.
A solar eclipse is a rare but beautiful occasion.There are only a few places in the world where the solar eclipse will be visible.Thousands of people watched the solar eclipse through specially provided pinhole glasses.
If you are referring to you eyes, no, definitely not. A SOLAR eclipse is what is dangerous to look at, because the moon is in front of the sun. In a lunar eclipse the sun is in front of the moon. The logic might seem kinda backwards, but it all adds up to the single word that NO, lunar eclipses ARE NOT DANGEROUS.
Your eyes are at risk during a solar eclipse. You can burn your retinas at the back of your eyes. If you're looking at the sun normally, your pupils will contract and only allow a little bit of light in. Less radiation gets to your retinas. The intensity of the sun's light usually prevents you from looking at it directly anyway. During an eclipse, the direct sunlight is blocked by the moon, but not all of the radiation. Your pupils dilate because it gets darker, and strong radiation that does not affect the pupils is allowed to penetrate to the back of the eye. Therefore, never look directly at the sun during an eclipse. The safest methods are to use a pinhole projection onto a flat surface, or to use a certified filter made for the purpose of solar observations.
If the moon happens to be visible to you during a lunar eclipse, you would see earth's shadow pass over the face of the full moon. (You will never see a lunar eclipse at a time other than during the full moon.) Eclipses of the moon can themselves be partial or full, depending on the convergence of the paths of the moon and earth's shadow.

The simplest thing is an indirect solar eclipse viewer, which you can build with some cardboard and ... Well, the instructions are at the link below.

First of all the solar eclipse happens for everyone not in a specific spot. Only thing that changes is the time of the eclipse for different regions of the world. Second of all, according to my calculations and Nasa of course the next solar eclipse is: Wednesday, 2009 July 22.
No, the word 'solar' is an adjective, a word used to describe a noun (solar energy, solar eclipse, solar flare, etc.)A noun is a word for a person, a place, or a thing.
There is no such thing as an eclipse 'season'.

An annular eclipse or annular solar eclipse is when the moon isn't close enough to the Earth during a solar eclipse to cover the whole circumference of the Sun, leaving a ring of light around the Moon.
The same thing that happens when you're on eartlh and you see a solar eclipse. The sun disappears for a few minutes or seconds and comes back. On earth, it would be called a lunar eclipse, where the earth comes between the sun and the moon. On the moon, it would look like a solar eclipse.
The true shadow where the celestial body completely blocks the light source (such as a total eclipse of the sun as viewed from Earth) is called the umbra. The partial shadow, for example if only a part of the limb of the body blocks the sun (like a partial solar eclipse) is called the penumbra.
I have been trying to look this up to. I have not found any thing yet but hope to find answer soon.
