Solar Eclipses

The Moon orbits the Earth once a month, and eclipses happen if it lines up exactly with the Earth and the Sun. Solar eclipses occur at New Moon, when the Moon is between Earth and the Sun. Lunar eclipses occur at Full Moon, when Earth is between the Sun and the Moon. Eclipses do not take place every month because the orbits of the Moon and Earth are tilted at an angle. Most of the time, the line-up is not precise enough for an eclipse.

1. The engagement ring Edward gave Bella symbolized his love for her.
2. The red rose symbolizes Jacobs love for Bella.
3. The broken ribbon on the book symbolize the the choice she has to make between Edward and Jacob.
4. Edwards charm symbolizes the love in his heart for her.
5. Jacob's charm symbolizes him as a warewolf, which is when Bella likes Jacob the least.

Because of the size of the moon and the distance of the sun, the moon can only cover the sun for a very short time. Because the moon is much closer to Earth and Earth is much bigger than the moon, it casts a big shadow, larger than the size of the moon itself, so it takes it longer to pass through it.

For an eclipse to occur the Sun, Moon and Earth must be in line. For a total eclipse the centers of each object must be all on the same line (a very special condition). If they are not, a partial eclipse will occur. The times that all 3 objects are aligned perfectly occur much less frequently than the partial alignment resulting in the partial eclipses. The related link below shows a nice diagram which will make this clearer.

There are generally two (sometimes three, rarely four or five) solar eclipses each year. But a solar eclipse is visible in only a limited area of the world, so if you stay at home, you will rarely see them. And remember that the Earth is 3/4 covered with water, so 3/4 of the eclipses are mostly over water.

No, that claim is not true. Solar eclipses do not have the power to cause the world to die. Solar eclipses are natural phenomena that occur when the moon passes between the Earth and the sun. They are not a threat to the existence of the world.

They are not more common; there are generally two solar eclipses and two lunar eclipses each year.

The PERCEPTION is that solar eclipses are more rare, and here's why. The Earth is much larger than the Moon, so the Earth's shadow is much larger than the Moon's shadow, right? In fact, the Earth's shadow can cover up the entire Moon at once. But the Moon is smaller than the Earth, and the Moon's shadow is much smaller yet; the diameter of the Moon's shadow is never much more than about 300 miles. The Earth has a diameter of about 8,000 miles, so only a tiny area of the Earth is affected by any solar eclipse.

There are two other points. A lunar eclipse happens on the Moon, and is visible from half of the Earth at once. A solar eclipse is only visible at the point of the Moon's shadow on the Earth, and 75% of the Earth's surface is water. So 3/4 of all solar eclipse time is visible only to people in ships! The last total solar eclipse had a path that went all the way across India and then all the way across China, and millions of people live there. THEN it went most of the way across the Pacific Ocean, and only a few people living on Iwo Jima got to see that part. The next total solar eclipse will be 90% over water, from mid-Pacific to Easter Island to the southern tip of Chile and Venezuela. Hardly anyone will be able to see it.

This statement is inaccurate. Lunar and solar eclipses can be predicted with high accuracy using astronomical calculations and models. The timing and visibility of eclipses can be forecasted many years in advance.

The Greek philosopher Thales of Miletus is credited with predicting a solar eclipse in 585 BC. He is considered one of the earliest known individuals to have made such a prediction based on his understanding of astronomy and mathematics.

The solar eclipse lasted just a few minutes and people from all around the world went to Plymouth to watch it as it was a one in a life time experience. If you have any more questions about the solar eclipse just ask =)

The 2007 total solar eclipse in the US lasted for about 2 minutes and 30 seconds at its longest point. The path of totality traveled across parts of the western US, including northern California, Nevada, and Utah.

There will be a total solar eclipse visible only in the northern tip of the Northern Territory and across the northern tip of Queensland on November 13, 2012. It will just miss Darwin, but will be nicely visible in Cairns.

After that, Australia will be criss-crossed by total eclipses, including July 22, 2028, November 25, 2030, July 13, 2037, and December 26, 2038.

The Moon's orbit around the Earth is inclined at an angle to the equator and in some circumstances the turning of the globe and the orbit of the moon are apparently moving in the same direction. This means that a country in the path of totality that is turning with the Moon will experience a longer eclipse than at other times and places.

The solar eclipse of July 2009 was visible only in Asia, not here in California.

the eclipse starts at 10:00 p.m. eastern ___________________ Earth's experience of the solar eclipse is a happy coincidence of history. It just happens that we have a moon of the right size and favorable orbit. It will not always be so. In future ages, the moon will no longer be able to give us 'total' eclipses, because it is very slowly moving farther away from earth. At some point it will be too far to completely cover the face of the sun.

Begins in the North Atlantic 186 miles south of Nova Scotia and quickly traverses the ocean. Southern England enjoys first landfall in Cornwall and parts of Devon. The path then crosses the English Channel and swings through northern France. Passing 12.5 miles north of Paris, the City of Lights will be darkened by an eclipse of magnitude 0.994.

Not quite. The path of totality will be just about 100 miles north of Mumbai. The city of Nargol is at the southern limit of the path of totality, while Surat is just on the center of the path. Bagasra and Vadodara mark the northern boundary of the path of totality.

Check the link below for a Google Map of the path of totality.

Yes, but that is about as dangerous as staring directly at the sun. Don't do it. If you must view the eclipse directly, you can get thick welder's glass. I have used it and it works great.

With solar eclipses there is less radiation than when the sun is full. The danger comes from the tendency of people to stare at the sun for prolonged periods of time. That is very bad for your eyes. NEVER look at the sun directly through binoculars or a telescope. Your vision will vanish without your feeling anything--without warning you will be blind.

You must have very special solar filters for viewing the sun through a telescope:)

The solar eclipse in Singapore will occur on October 25, 2022, starting at 3:52 PM local time and reaching its maximum point at 5:13 PM. It is expected to be a partial eclipse with approximately 9% coverage of the sun.-Given Singapore's geographical location, it will not be experiencing a total solar eclipse.

The worship of Goddess Durga removes the effect of all types of black magic, unfavorable effect of negative planets, Bad luck, health problems, problems due to enemies etc.

" OM Aim Hrim Klim Chamundaye Vichchye"

This Mantr has 9 letters in Sanskrit that is why it is called "Navarn Mantra".

AIM ; This letter helps to put our "Aatmiy Gyan" in actions.

HRIM : This letter helps us to see person / world without any of likes or dislikes, good or bad, rich or poor.

KLIM : This letter helps us to control all our desires and all our senses.

We strongly started to believe that what is happening around us is just "Parmatmiy lila". Let the desires "By Pass" without involving ourselves in them.

CHAMUNDAYE : These Four latters togeather make Matadee's name.

CHAMUNDAYE means Stable and Fearless Head (Mind).

Means who ever chant this "Navarn Mantra" with Knowledge, Faith and Actions, they will always be protected by Ma Chamundadevee.

VICHCHE means

VIT = Knowledge with positive thinking.

CH = Happiness without any FEAR.

E =Devine Power.

There is no scientific evidence to suggest that a solar eclipse directly causes war or violence. Any observed increase in aggression during a solar eclipse is more likely due to social or psychological factors rather than any physical effects of the eclipse itself.
