How do you make a solar eclipse?
You dont make it. A solar eclipse is when the moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, partially blocking it or completely blocking it, which is known as a total solar eclipse. When this happens the light bursts out the sides creating an annulus, or ring of light. Here is a video of a total solar eclipse: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWBmKQRQsks&feature=related The annulus is at 2:22
What is the red ring called during a total solar eclipse?
The ring visible as the moon passes in front of the sun during a solar eclipse is called the corona. This appears durian a total solar eclipse, when the apparent size of the moon is larger than the sun.During an annular eclipse, where the moon's apparent size is smaller than the sun, the ring visible around the moon is called the annulus.
What is the ring around a full solar eclipse called?
This type of eclipse is called an "annular eclipse" and the ring is an "annulus".
What is diamond ring effect?
During a total eclipse of the Sun, as the moon gets to the point when it is completely in front of the Sun, at one point light can be seen brightly emanating from the top, while all around there is just a slight glimmer. It is said to be similar to the way a diamond ring looks and hence the name. See the link below.
What Can only occur when the moon is new and has angular size larger than the sun in the sky?
A total solar eclipse can only occur when the moon is new and its angular size appears larger than the sun in the sky. During a total solar eclipse, the moon passes between the Earth and the sun, completely blocking the sun's light and casting a shadow on the Earth.
When the earth enters into the moon shadows what is the name of the eclipse?
Solar eclipse, either Total, Partial or Annular aka Ring of Fire
What is total and partial eclipse?
For example, in the case of a solar eclipse, a "total eclipse" means that at some point, the entire Sun is darkened. A "partial eclipse" means that the Sun is only partially darkened - at no point does the entire Sun get darkened. Similar for lunar eclipse. Specifically for the case of a solar eclipse, it is also possible to get an "anular eclipse", meaning that a ring of light remains on the outside (that is, a part that doesn't get darkened, in the form of a ring).

A ring eclipse is?
Also known as Annular, it would be a total Solar eclipse if the Moon were nearer the Earth at the time (the Moon's orbit is not a perfect circle). The further the Moon is from the Earth, the smaller it appears and thus cannot completely cover the Sun.

The light you see around the sun during a total eclipse?
The light seen around the sun during a total solar eclipse is the sun's outer atmosphere, known as the corona. The corona appears as a shimmering ring of light due to the sun's intense heat and magnetic fields. This phenomenon is only visible during a total solar eclipse when the moon completely covers the sun, revealing the sun's outer atmosphere.
What is the ring around a full solar eclipse called?
This type of eclipse is called an "annular eclipse" and the ring is an "annulus".

What is a solar eclipse that leaves a ring around the sun?
A solar eclipse that leaves a ring around the sun is known as an annular solar eclipse. This type of eclipse occurs when the moon is too far from Earth to completely cover the sun, resulting in a ring of sunlight being visible around the moon's silhouette during the peak of the eclipse.
Does a solar eclipse always look the same or is there different types?
There are three types of solar eclipse.The most well-known type is a total eclipse. In a total eclipse the moon completely blocks the sun from view so that only the corona is visible.During an annular eclipse the moon is farther away than in a total eclipse and appears slightly smaller in the sky than the sun. As a result the sun will appear to form a ring around the moon.During a partial eclipse the moon only covers a portion of the sun. A total or annular eclipse will only appear as such along a relatively narrow path. Most places affected by the eclipse will experience a partial eclipse. A partial eclipse may also be seen for a time before and after a total or annular eclipse.
