On the 26th of this month, Tianyu will stage a spectacular annular eclipse. Astronomy experts said that during the annular eclipse on the next day, a partial solar eclipse can be observed all over China, and the greater the southern eclipse (the proportion of the moon covering the diameter of the sun).
When the sun, the moon and the earth are in a straight line and the moon is between them, a solar eclipse will occur. Solar eclipses are divided into total eclipses, annular eclipses and partial eclipses. If the moon is far away from the earth, the sun is close to the earth, and the apparent circle of the moon is small and can not completely cover the sun, an annular eclipse will occur. When an annular eclipse occurs, the sun in the sky becomes a ring, golden as a & lsquo; Gold ring & rsquo;.
Shi Zhicheng, member of the Chinese Astronomical Society and director of the Tianjin astronomical society, said that the annular eclipse will begin at 10:29:50 on the 26th Beijing time and end at 16:05:43, after more than five hours. The annular eclipse zone starts from the Middle East, passes through the southern tip of India and Sri Lanka, enters Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia and other countries in Southeast Asia, and finally ends in the Western Pacific. The average width of the annular eclipse belt is about 115 kilometers. The annular eclipse can be seen for about 3 minutes and 40 seconds at the longest time.
At about 10:56, the penumbra of the moon entered the Ali Region of Tibet in China, and then the penumbra of the moon swept across the whole territory of China to the northeast. China can see different degrees of partial solar eclipses, of which Hainan has the largest eclipse score, which is 0.499; Mohe has the lowest food score, which is 0.021. After 15:37, the penumbra of the moon left China from Hainan Province. For China, it can be seen that the solar eclipse lasted more than four hours. " Shi Zhicheng said.
Astronomy experts said that although it is not as spectacular as the total solar eclipse and annular solar eclipse, the partial eclipse is also wonderful. At that time, the sun lacks a corner, as if it was really bitten off by the legendary Tiangou.
