Solar Eclipse

Did you know last Friday we had the privilege to see the solar eclipse? It’s fascinating if you ask me. Make you feel very small to see such majestic incident created by God. 335pm if I'm not mistaken.


The solar eclipse of January 15, 2010 was 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 was visible as only partial eclipse in much of Africa, Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Asia. It was seen as annular eclipse within a narrow stretch of 300 km (190 mi) width across Central Africa, Maldives, South Kerala, South Tamil Nadu, Sri Lanka and parts of Bangladesh, Burma and China.

Miss my days when I could lay down in the open grass and look upon those stars. Yeah I’m a dreamer. Has always been one.
