This is the eclipse as seen from Hao Atoll in the South Pacific. The narrow angle video was obtained using a Canon EOS 550D camera with a Megrez 72 telescope and x2 barlow. This produced a 1920x1080 25p video stream. The widefield video is from a SD Sony Camcorder looking out over the Pacific Ocean towards the Sun. We had some thin cloud. Look out for shadow bands projected onto this cloud at second and third contact.
Video Rating: 5 / 5

Why lunar eclipse is observed only when moon is full. Longest period between two solar eclipse is how much?


Question by shabbee: Why lunar eclipse is observed only when moon is full. Longest period between two solar eclipse is how much?
It is my observation that solar eclipse has no specific pattern but lunar one is only sighted at full-moon night.

Answer by SteveI'm not 100% sure but i would guess it has something to do with earth moon sun alignment. it must need to be aligned just so for an eclipse to happen and the side effect is a full moon.

Q&A: How much power do we get from the sun every day?


Question by Hiya: How much power do we get from the sun every day?
I need to know how much per square inch at any given time and also the amount the sun gives the earth (in total, the sun is always shining some where) each day.


Best answer:
Answer by Donut TimMost of the Sun’s light is radiated in a direction that does not send it to Earth.

Only 0.000000724654% of it reaches the Earth.
That’s 7.24654 billionths of the Sun’s total light.

The Sunlight that reaches Earth is equal to approximately 1,370 watts per square meter (0.884 watts per square inch) when the sun is at zenith. Because of the atmosphere, the amount of energy that reaches the ground is about 1,000 watts per meter (0.645 watts per square inch) when the sun is directly above and no clouds obscure. (One watt is equal to 1 joule (J) of energy per second.)

The total energy from the Sun that hits Earth is 2,787,020,730,988,480,000 watts.
