Whats a cool emperiment about optics and visions?
What do they mean when you can see planets during a total solar eclipse?
Question by AY0116: What do they mean when you can see planets during a total solar eclipse?
There is a total eclipse coming up in August for parts of Russia and China, there are other places as well but I don't know where. I was reading an article about how there will be four planets visible during the eclipse. What I want to know is, does the eclipse magnify these planets so you can view them with the naked eye or does it just expose the area of the planet in darkness long enough that you could view them through a telescope?
Best answer:
Answer by Wild BillThe eclipse actually reduces the light pollution from the Sun to the Earth allowing us to see the brightest objects in the sky such as Venus, Jupiter, Mars, and Saturn. When the eclipse is over they will fade into the wild blue sky!

A video taken by TQ friend and traveler Bob Stephens on the 2012 Australia Total Solar Eclipse Tour! "A group of eclipse chasers on the TravelQuest International trip viewed the eclipse from Wetherby Station on the Atherton Tableland in Queensland, Australia. The group left the Thala Beach Lodge at 3:30 AM on Eclipse Day to increase its chances of seeing the eclipse. Forecasts called for coastal clouds, which impacted Carines and Port Douglas. Clouds usually stopped along the coastal ridge. Although clouds did somewhat get over the ridge, and provided quite a scare just minutes before 2nd Contact, the group of nearly 200 only had to contend with some light cirrus clouds during totality." -Bob Stephens
