DownloadableYoutube.com Download Youtube Videos | Youtube Video Downloader - Total Solar Eclipse 2009 of people in Asia will see the longest total solar eclipse this century on Wednesday as swaths of India and China are plunged into darkness. Scores of amateur stargazers and scientists will travel long distances for the eclipse, which will last for about five minutes. The eclipse will first appear in the Gulf of Khambhat just north of Mumbai. It will move east across India, Nepal, Burma, Bangladesh, Bhutan and China before hitting the Pacific. The eclipse will cross some southern Japanese islands and will last be visible from land at Nikumaroro Island in the South Pacific nation of Kiribati. Elsewhere, a partial eclipse will be visible across much of Asia. The previous total eclipse, in August 2008, lasted two minutes and 27 seconds. This one will last six minutes and 39 seconds at its maximum point. Alphonse Sterling, a Nasa astrophysicist who will be following the eclipse from China, scientists are hoping data from the eclipse will help explain solar flares and other structures of the sun and why they erupt. 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 ...

Explorers has introduced a new range of astronomy tours which are designed to help holidaymakers witness some of the most remarkable events in the celestial world. After 25 years of specialising in solar eclipse holidays, Explorers' upcoming guided trips will take in some of the night sky's most extraordinary natural displays. From the Draconid Meteor Shower's forecasted peak of hundreds of shooting stars per hour to the unadulterated stargazing bliss offered by the unspoilt Kenyan stars. The three new astronomy tours, all accompanied by acclaimed astronomer and expedition guide Dr John Mason MBE, include: Northern Lights tour (Iceland): With the sun's 11 year activity cycle set to be high over the next few years, the 8-day tours are selected around the new moon to ensure dark skies to witness the Aurora Borealis. By day the group will enjoy winter activities, from snowmobiling and cross-country skiing to horse-riding and swimming in natural geothermal springs, before marvelling at the undulating colours by night. To ensure pristine conditions, the group will be based in a remote area around Lake Myvatn, just a few kilometres from the Arctic Circle, where an outdoor hot tub provides the ultimate way to take in the 'show'. Departures 26 February and 2 March 2011. Prices from 1189pp. Galactic Safari (Kenya): Having witnessed the Masai Mara's world famous wildlife on daytime game drives, the combination of frequent cloudless nights and low light pollution levels provide a perfectly dark sky which ensure prime opportunities to view the centre of the Galaxy. Departures in May and June 2011. Rain of Shooting Stars (Turkey): From vibrant Istanbul, the group will travel to the fascinating region of Cappadocia with its famous fairy chimneys. Rich in history and spectacular geology, this is an ideal location from which to view the Draconid Meteor Show and computer models suggest the 2011 display will be one of the finest for many years, with peak rates of several hundred meteors per hour. Departure 4 Oct 2011. Prices from

Astrology Forecast for June 2011 - General Tendencies for All Sun Signs

Astrology Forecast for June 2011 - General Tendencies for All Sun Signs
We have 2 eclipses this month bringing changes, and we may see some good luck and creative energy during the first half of June. But, as this month progresses, we could encounter problems and unexpected emergencies. We will actually have 3 eclipses this summer with the final one on July 1st. June could be a month of transition and spiritual hurtles. Try to be prepared for anything, and don't press your luck.The month begins with a new moon solar eclipse in Gemini singing in harmony with Saturn on June 1st. This will be an excellent time for changes in business, or some may just be ready to make some practical changes at home. The eclipse will be the major influence for change, but we also have 2 outer planets influencing changes. Neptune will be turning retrograde on June 3rd, and Jupiter will enter Taurus on June 4th. Those with dominate Pisces in their charts may find that the changes upon them are difficult and upsetting. Sagittarius and Taurus may discover that there are opportunities for fortune in their grasp.The week of June 6th looks very promising with two outer planets, Jupiter and Neptune, singing in harmony. My Llewellyn Calender calls it, "mystical inspiration." It will be an excellent week for creative projects and romantic encounters, but Venus will be angry with the lineup. Taurus and Libra may need to watch out for delusions or confusion. Because these two planets are sitting on the cusps, there could be some heroic moments. Keep the cape handy, because someone may need to be rescued.Sunday, June 12th could be a day of inspiration with Saturn turning direct, Mercury joining the Sun, and Venus singing with Uranus. Things could turn out better than we planned on that day, but with an approaching lunar eclipse on June 15th, there could also be some unexpected issues to deal with. This eclipse will be a total lunar eclipse and will not be viewable from the US. Nonetheless, it will still affect us. There could be changes in travel, or some could have unexpected problems with their cars. This eclipse could also affect siblings, neighbors, and even higher education and institutions.There could be a few more upsets on Fathers' Day and on through the first few days of the week of June 19th. Mercury and Pluto will be at a standoff on Sunday, which could cause some of us to put our feet in our mouths. Think before you speak, because there is a potential for quarrels. Mars will be in a battle with Neptune through June 22nd, and this may really drain our energy. Laziness could become pandemic. Some may reach for their addictions to cope. The Sun will move in to appease Mars and Neptune on May 22nd, so there could be some positive results from our efforts. Things will improve as we approach the weekend, and good-luck could be shining upon us once

Egypt, Mexico, Peru: What Subject Do They Share?
Egypt, Mexico, Peru: What Subject Do They Share?
No matter how many times you here about Egypt, Mexico or Peru you know that there will be something that you will find interesting. These countries are not the only ones but they stand out as far as they have one thing in common. All of them were advanced in Astronomy.EgyptIn Egypt there are hundreds of sites that were astronomically aligned. Most of them with great precision. To name one or two you have to look at Karnak, Luxor where the great axis that runs through the Temple of Amun aligns with the midsummer sunrise. Most of what we see there dates back to the New Kingdom around the year 1567 -1086 BC.Another place is Giza where we find the remarkable pyramids of Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure. The Great Pyramid is said to have ventilation shafts that points to certain stars and the three pyramids are believed to symbolize the belt of Orion, the hunter, one of the most prominent constellation in the sky.PeruThis South American country is the proud owner of Machu Pichu, an ancient mountain-top city. Here you do not only stand amazed at the stones that had to be brought there but there is enough evidence to support the fact that this city was built so that it incorporated astronomy into its design. It is a mystery why the builders needed such precise measurements and yet it is their ability to have done that one should rather focus on.MexicoIn the 2000 year old Mexican city of Yeotihuacan a street grid has been discovered that is skew 15.5 east-of-north. This according to some research might be based on when the Pleiades or better known as the Seven Sisters first appears at dawn each year.A possible ExplanationAgricultural purposes. While this is not always the case, there are instances where a definite connection between the alignment of sites with certain constellation have something to do with seasonal planting and sowing of crops.Religious and Cosmological purposesThe ancients lived in a magical world where rituals took precedence over physical activity. From records, we know that the significance of rituals was so great that these civilizations would never have taken a chance. They simply had to know when the solar eclipse would be to be prepared. The same with planting and sowing. The beacon of time they used was the sun, stars, planets all which are studied by Astronomy.
