Question by Stefan: Can you tell me some interesting facts about SOLAR and LUNAR ECLIPSES ?
Example : What had people believed before they realized the reason why it's happening ?

And all the things that you know, thank you !
Hey people I don't need only what they've believed I need everythiiiing, I am making a project and it has to last 15 minutes at least !
- I know some things but I need more information.


Best answer:
Answer by BrantOh, I'll just give you one that popped into my mind. It doesn't have to do with legends or whatever, but a common misconception. It has traditionally been believed that it is dangerous to look at a total solar eclipse with the naked eye. One should use protection when viewing a partial eclipse, but when it is total, you don't need any protection at all.

Kind of like dating and marriage.

Wow! Mercury's retrograde will begin on Thanksgiving Day (USA), November 24th, and the next day, November 25th, we will experience a New Moon solar eclipse. A second eclipse, Full Moon lunar eclipse, will occur again on December 10th, and Mercury will turn direct on December 13th. This will not be a typical Mercury retrograde, for sure!When a planet is in retrograde, it appears to be moving backward against the background of the universe. Planets do not actually reverse directions, they just appear that way, because we are not at the center of the solar system. Mercury will be passing us on our solar racetrack, so his gravitational pull and his influence will be much more prominent in our lives.Eclipses bring changes, good and bad. Most people are resistant to change, and that's why they have such a negative reputation. An eclipse is considered to be 10 times more powerful than a typical full or new moon. Also, eclipses usually come in pairs, one on the New Moon and one on the Full Moon. Occasionally we will get 3 in a row, and they usually occur twice a year.Mercury will be doing his retrograde in the sign of Sagittarius this time, and the eclipses will be bouncing between Sagittarius and Gemini. Sagittarius, I do no envy you! There could be big changes coming for Sagittarius and Gemini in November and December, and Sag, you may find things from your past coming back up to be dealt with.Sagittarius is the wanderer, the optimist, and the ruler of higher education. Mercury's retrograde in Sagittarius may stimulate us to visit places from our past, or we may receive some special visitors that we haven't seen in a very long time. This Mercury retrograde will also be an excellent time to go back and brush up on something we learned in the past, or even make the decision to go back to school and expand the education we already have.Mercury's retrograde often brings up the past, and Mercury's retrograde will be affecting all of us in some way. The houses in our natal charts that Mercury will be crossing will determine what areas of our lives Mercury will affect. An example would be, Mercury's retrograde traveling through your 8th house could bring money from past (and possibly forgotten) loans. Or, Mercury's retrograde in your 5th house of romance could bring a past lover back into your life. Mercury's retrograde with travel from 20 degrees 7 minutes through 3 degrees 51 minutes, Sagittarius.We often begin to notice eclipse energy up to a couple of weeks before, and even a week after, the actual event. With the Gemini and Sagittarius influence, the eclipses could affect our relationships. These two signs are dynamic, and

Q&A: What does America see during the Solar Eclipse?


Question by xoxo~Sami~xoxo: What does America see during the Solar Eclipse?
I know only Hawaii was the possible place someone could see the solar eclipse. But what did the sun or moon look like in America while the solar eclipse was happening other places?


Best answer:
Answer by NgohI think that the Sun was just as usual as before because the Solar Eclipse happens in a straight line. So , America see the Sun only from another position.

The solar eclipse of January 15, 2010 is an annular eclipse of the Sun with a magnitude of 0.9190. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partially obscuring Earth's view of the Sun. An annular solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is smaller than the Sun, causing the sun to look like an annulus (ring), blocking most of the Sun's light. An annular eclipse appears as a partial eclipse over a region thousands of kilometres wide. The eclipse starts at the Central African Republic, traverses Cameroon, DR Congo and Uganda, passes through Nairobi, Kenya, enters the Indian Ocean and reaches its greatest eclipse. After that it enters Maldives, where it would be the longest on land with 10.8 minutes of viewing.

Yes, Today You Can Uncover And Witness The Magic Reality Of A Solar Eclipse

Yes, Today You Can Uncover And Witness The Magic Reality Of A Solar Eclipse

From the dawn of time Nature's majestic firework display of a full solar eclipse has created awe and wonder in all who witness such a natural and stunning event.Before science began to explain the journey and paths of planets in the solar system and their circumnavigation around the Sun, the common belief amongst most cultures was of the end of days and portents to war, pestilence and famine.Today solar eclipse travel, solar eclipse pictures beamed by television across the world and animated solar eclipse graphics showing over the Internet and other media, have enabled a deep understanding of this awesome natural wonder to completely lose its earlier held mystical and demonic attachments.A rare solar eclipse, called a hybrid solar eclipse, is where seemingly the sun and the moon appear to exactly coincide. One of the last solar eclipse to create this effect was in 2005.In 2013 there will be both an annular and total solar eclipse hybrid which will pass through the Greenwich Meridian at 0º latitude, 0º longitude. This is a rare solar eclipse whose next occurrence will not be before 2114.Where solar eclipses pass through least populated areas of the earth and especially when they are full solar eclipses, the unique and awe inspiring sight for travelers and solar eclipse trekkers alike, is a gold mine.Solar eclipse sun protecting clothing and eclipse glasses are essential and very helpful in making the experience enjoyable and not dangerous.It is very important not to look at the full solar eclipse without special glasses to protect the eyes. During a solar eclipse in Turkey recently some damaged their vision without proper protection. This precaution, as in other places, to protect the naked eye is essential for all who wish to observe an eclipse.So what is a solar eclipse?It is when the sun and moon align either in totality or partially. This alignment allows the moon to seem to be as big as the sun and proceeds to cover the sun's light to the earth for a few minutes at most. This brings an unnatural night during the day and it affects much of the natural kingdom who begin to adopt, in their confusion, their nocturnal behaviour during the day.Both solar and lunar eclipses hold a magical sway over our imaginations and are cosmic events that bring us to realise how puny we are in the order of things and for a few moments at least, instill a healthy dollop of humility into our lives.To experience a full solar eclipse in sacred and remote mountainous, amid stunningly beautiful landscape, is a rarity afforded to the few. Add to that, these places may be some of the remotest on the planet - it adds a precious,awesome and privileged experience.There is nothing to beat a solar eclipse live. A solar eclipse picture on the T.V. can in no way compare itself to a live viewing.Solar eclipse tours are a seriously
