Product Description
Millions of lucky people in Africa and Asia had the opportunity to witness an unusual celestial event on January 15, 2010. Using special dark glasses, pinhole cameras, and other devices so that they would not be blinded by the Sun, they saw a rare annular solar eclipse. This kind of eclipse takes place when the Sun is closest to Earth and the Moon is farthest away, so the Moon does not completely cover the Sun. This means that at the peak phase of the eclipse the rim of the Sun is visible all around the disk of the Moon.Titles in the Set:
