For everyone who loves to watch a solar eclipse.Here is a good news.On 15th January 2009 there will be annular solar eclipse , Moon will directly pass between Sun and Earth . Since, Moon is small it is unable to cover the Sun which leaves a ring of sunlight visible at maximum.
Viewers will see this annular eclipse along a narrow path that begins in central Africa and then goes across the Indian Ocean, through southern India, Sri Lanka, Burma, and, ultimately, China. Viewers in much of Africa, eastern Europe, and Asia will witness a partial eclipse.
The last annular solar eclipse occurred a year ago on January, 2009 and the next will most probably occur on May 20, 2012.
If you wanna watch the solar eclipse then use approved solar filters.
