( more information on the picture Lunar and Solar Eclipses Links Questions Perhaps the most spectacular astronomical events that one can observe without a telescope, lunar and solar eclipses were considered omens of great fortune or complete disaster in ancient times. We now know that the occurrence of eclipses is a consequence of the orbits of the Earth and Moon with respect to the Sun. Though a total solar eclipse may be seen more than once a year on Earth, from a given spot on the planet these events are almost as rare as they are spectacular. The relative motions of the Earth and the Moon cause solar eclipses to be visible only within a strip of a few degrees in latitude, and total obscuration lasts no more than about seven minutes. Thus, at any single location on Earth, a total solar eclipse occurs only once every 300 years or so. Because the shadow cast by the Earth is quite a bit larger than the Moon, lunar eclipses are more common than solar eclipses, and totality can last for about an hour. Nonetheless, the beauty of such events entices both professional and amateur astronomers alike to chase them all around the globe!

BLOCKING YOUR VIEW Eclipses are events that happen when one planet or moon is lined up between a star and another planet or moon. For example, you will see an eclipse when the Earth passes directly between our Sun and the Moon. An eclipse could also happen on the surface of Mars when one of Mars' moons passes between the surface and the Sun. It's all about blocking light and creating a shadow As the objects move, the shadow moves across the surface planet or moon. Eclipses don't last longer than a few hours because both planets or moons are moving. The amount of eclipse is also dependent on your location. The same eclipse might be a total eclipse for someone in Brazil, but only a partial eclipse for someone in Florida. LUNAR ECLIPSES We've been talking about planets passing between the Sun and another object. A lunar eclipse happens when the Earth passes between the Sun and the Moon. Lunar eclipses can only happen when there is a full moon. As the Moon's orbit takes it behind the Earth, a shadow crosses the face of the full Moon. The shadow does not always cover the entire Moon in a total eclipse. There are also

What Causes an Eclipse? What Causes an Eclipse? An eclipse occurs at those times when the Moon moves into a position of direct alignment with the Sun and the Earth total lunar eclipse But the gentle beauty of a lunar eclipse pales in comparison with the truly awesome spectacle of a total solar eclipse , which occurs when the new Moon passes directly between the Sun and the Earth. In the narrow path of totality umbra corona dark disk of the Moon totally obscures the bright Sun penumbra Not all solar eclipses are total. During a partial solar eclipse , only the penumbra touches our planet. The umbra passes either just above the North Pole or just below the South Pole, completely missing the Earth. No total eclipse is visible only partial phases can be seen. A third type of solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's umbra passes across the Earth, but is not quite long enough to touch the surface; the shadow cone diminishes to a point before reaching the Earth. This effect happens when the Moon is farther out in its orbit around the Earth. The Moon appears slightly smaller and is not large enough to completely cover the Sun. When the Moon is centered over the Sun, a ring of sunlight remains visible around the edge. This type of eclipse is called an annular eclipse . (Annular comes from the Latin word meaning "ring.") Because the Sun is not completely covered by the Moon, the rare and dramatic effects of a total solar eclipse (onset of darkness and view of the corona) are not present at either annular or partial eclipses of the Sun.

Confessions of a Coronaphile T otal solar Eclipses are a bigger part of my life than I'd like to admit (a touch of mindless obsession lurks nearby.) But for those who have witnessed this most spectacular of natural events, no words are capable of expressing the awe, the goose bumps, the thrill of the chase, the indelible memories wrought by one of these beauties. By the most unlikely odds, earth's moon is nearly the same angular size as the sun, when they are viewed from the surfacehalf a degree (it varies only a few percent during the year.) This permits the moon's orb, when it's path crosses the sun's, to just barely block out the intense light from the sun completely, fitting the solar disk just inside the moon's craggier one. When that happens, at least if you're lucky to be within the very narrow path the moon's shadow traces during the next few hours (or less), you will witness the day become near-night, like the deepest twilight. Sunset colors bathe the full horizon, while a gaping black hole gazes down at you from the inky sky, eye-like and surreal, surrounded by the solar

You'll learn the answers to these questions and more in MrEclipse's primer on solar eclipses. Before we learn more about the eclipses of the Sun, we need to first talk about the Moon. Phases of the Moon. Phases of The Moon The Moon is a cold, rocky body about 2,160 miles (3,476 km) in diameter. It has no light of its own but shines by sunlight reflected from its surface. The Moon orbits Earth about once every 29 and a half days. As it circles our planet, the changing position of the Moon with respect to the Sun causes our natural satellite to cycle through a series of phases: New Moon > New Crescent > First Quarter > Waxing Gibbous > Full Moon > Waning Gibbous > Last Quarter > Old Crescent > New Moon (again) The phase known as New Moon can not actually be seen because the illuminated side of the Moon is then pointed away from Earth. The rest of the phases are familiar to all of us as the Moon cycles through them month after month. Did you realize that the word

Eclipses How often and when do they occur? How often? There's not an easy answer. For an eclipse to occur the Sun, Moon and Earth have to line up in the same plane. This can only happen when the Moon is full or new and when the Moon passes through the ecliptic . Because the Moon's orbit is inclined 5 degrees to the Earth's, it spends most of its time below or above the plane of the Earth and the ecliptic. Note: Lunar eclipses, unlike solar eclipses, are completely safe to watch. Lunar Eclipses for Beginners Solar Eclipses for Beginners Note: New Moons are invisible, hidden in the Sun's bright light, but during a solar eclipse the New Moon "appears" as a darkness covering some portion of the Sun. Viewing Solar Eclipses Safely APOD: August 24, 1998 - An Annular Eclipse of the Sun Image: Olivier Staiger The above picture was taken by a video camera in Mersing on the East Coast of Malaysia and emailed to APOD from an internet cafe in Kuala Lumpur. An annular solar eclipse will occur when the Moon's angular size is slightly less than the Sun's angular size. Therefore, when the Moon is directly in front of the Sun, the edges of the Sun are still visible. This solar ring is so bright that the Moon's surface normally appears dark by comparison. The angular sizes of the Sun and Moon change slightly because of the elliptical nature of the Moon's and Earth's orbit. A

Eclipse Lunar Eclipse A lunar eclipse is an eclipse which occurs whenever the moon passes behind the earth such that the earth blocks the sunıs rays from striking the moon. This can occur only when the Sun, Earth, and Moon are aligned exactly, or very closely so, with the Earth in the middle. Hence, there is always a full moon the night of a lunar eclipse. The type and length of an eclipse depend upon the Moonıs location relative to its orbital nodes. The shadow of the Earth can be divided into two distinctive parts: the umbra and penumbra. Within the umbra, there is no direct solar radiation. However, as a result of the Sunıs large angular size, solar illumination is only partially blocked in the outer portion of the Earthıs shadow, which is given the name penumbra. A penumbral eclipse occurs when the Moon passes through the Earthıs penumbra. The penumbra causes a subtle darkening of the Moon's surface. A special type of penumbral eclipse is a total penumbral eclipse, during which the Moon lies exclusively within the Earthıs penumbra. Total penumbral eclipses are rare, and when these occur, that portion of the Moon which is closest to the umbra can appear somewhat darker than the rest of the Moon. A partial lunar eclipse occurs when only a portion of the Moon enters the umbra. When the Moon travels completely into the Earthıs umbra, one observes a total lunar eclipse. The Moonıs speed through the shadow is about one kilometer per second (2,300 mph), and totality may last up to nearly 107 minutes. Nevertheless, the total time between the Moonıs first and last contact with the shadow is much longer, and could last up to 3.8 hours.

Online Astrological Journal Current Transits Jupiter Saturn Rahu/Ketu Special Transits ... Trips Eclipses Do you realize that in ancient times, astrologers were beheaded for not alerting the emperors in advance about eclipses? Eclipses were taken as negative omens. It's true, they're not the greatest days for important new beginnings or advancing one's material affairs. On the other hand, there is really no need to make them into dreaded events. In fact, eclipses are wonderful for introspection, meditation, cleaning house, letting go of old baggage, quiet time or any other spiritual pursuit. The idea of paying attention to eclipses, or any astrological event for that matter, is simply to harmonize your action with the astrological weather. Eclipses can be used on different levels as well. The most common way to use an eclipse in astrology is as an omen or sign portending global trends or events. Typically, because the eclipse is caused by a shadow passing across the Sun or the Moon, it is taken as an indication of negative events, suggesting problems for particular countries, leaders, or some aspect of world politics. On the other hand, eclipses can also be used for individuals. The astrological house in which the eclipse takes place will usually become sensitized for up to 6 months. If the eclipse falls near the same degree as a planet in the persons natal chart then it affects that planet and everything it symbolizes in the chart. If the eclipse falls on the persons natal Sun, Moon, Ascendant, or ruler of the Ascendant, then it will have a powerful effect.
