Q&A: Solar Eclipse In Nanjing, China?


Question by Gnorts: Solar Eclipse In Nanjing, China?
There is going to be a solar eclipse in Nanjing, China and one of my friends is going to take pictures of the solar eclipse. How can you make a lens to put on to a digital camera for the solar eclipse?


Best answer:
Answer by aliPhotographing an eclipse of the Sun is fun and easy. However, you will need to use a special Solar Filter to protect your eyes and your camera.

A solar eclipse occurs whenever the Moon's shadow falls on the Earth. This can only happen during New Moon when the Moon passes between the Sun and Earth. Although there is a New Moon every 29 1/2 days, there are usually only 2 or 3 solar eclipses each year. That's because the Moon's orbit is tipped 5 degrees to Earth's so the Moon's shadow misses Earth during most New Moons. (see: Solar Eclipses For Beginners)

Watching and photographing an eclipse of the Sun is a relaxing activity since it progresses at a leisurely pace. The eclipse begins as a small notch slowly appears along one edge of the Sun. During the next hour, the Moon gradually covers more and more of the Sun's bright disk. If the eclipse is a total one, the last remaining minutes of the partial phases can be quite dramatic and beautiful. The crescent of the Sun grows thinner as the Moon's shadow approaches. The abrupt darkness of totallity is stunning and quite unlike you've ever seen. And the incredible solar corona is simply the most awe-inspiring naked-eye sight in all of nature. Certainly the most a remarkable sight (see: The Experience of Totality)....

This video shows the current development state of the upcoming eclipses plugin for Marble Virtual Globe. It allows users to inspect future and past eclipses. Both sun and lunar eclipses are supported. The user will also be able to select an observation point on earth. The plugin will then use this point for time and visibility calculations of eclipses.
