The Basics
of
Solar Eclipse
• An eclipse is a natural
shading or darkening of
one celestial body by
another.
• A solar eclipse or the eclipse
of the sun occurs when the
moon passes between Earth
and the sun, the moon casts a
shadow over Earth.
Syzygy is the nearly straight-line
formation of three celestial bodies –
which lasts only for about 7.5
minutes.
TOTAL ECLIPSE
- happens when the dark
shadow of the moon
completely obscures
the intensely bright light
of the sun, allowing
much fainter solar
corona to be visible
- occurs when total
darkness is experienced
ANNULAR ECLIPSE
- When the moon appears
to pass across the middle
of the sun but is too small
to cover the disk of the
sun completely, an
annular eclipse occur.
ANNULAR ECLIPSE
- The sun seems to be a very
bright ring surrounding the
dark disc of the moon.
- rare type of eclipse
- can be observed only during
the new moon
ANNULAR ECLIPSE
- The sun seems to be a very
bright ring surrounding the
dark disc of the moon.
- rare type of eclipse
- can be observed only during
the new moon
The shadow of an eclipse has THREE
DISTINCT REGIONS:
• UMBRA
- is a dark, slender cone part of the shadow
where all sunlight is completely blocked out
- it is surrounded by the penumbra
• PENUMBRA
- a lighter, funnel-shaped, outer part shadow
from which the sunlight is partially obscured
The shadow of an eclipse has THREE
DISTINCT REGIONS:
• ANTUMBRA
- is the region from which the occluding
body appears entirely contained within the disc
of the light source
HYBRID ECLIPSE
- is comparatively rare
- In some areas on the
surface of Earth it
appears as a total eclipse,
whereas at other points it
appears as an annular
eclipse
PARTIAL ECLIPSE
- occurs when the sun and
the moon are not exactly
in line and the moon only
partially obscures the sun
- can usually be seen from
a large part of Earth
outside of the track of an
annular or total eclipse
Safety during Eclipse Observation
• You are advised not to look directly at the sun
with the naked eye or with any optical device
such as binoculars or a telescope, as doing so
can lead to blindness.
• One of the easiest ways to view a daytime
eclipse without damaging the eyes is by wearing
a solar filter (figure 11.10).
How a Solar Eclipse Happens
• The sun is farther away than the moon, but is a
much larger celestial object.
• In a solar eclipse, the moon and the sun appear
almost the same size.
• Solar eclipses occur during the new moon, when
the moon is between the Earth and the sun.
• There are at least two lunar eclipses each year,
although a number of these are only penumbral,
when the moon is not seen to be darkened very
much.
Some Beliefs and Practices in Relation to Eclipses
• In olden times, people say that an evil spirit or a
dragon is trying to swallow the sun. Those who
believed this would make noise by beating gongs,
by screaming or crying , by shouting, or by hitting
other metallic objects to cast out the evil spirit or
dragon who overshadowed the solar disk. Some
people practiced various rituals to return the sun
in the sky. After the sun cameback, they
celebrated this event with animal sacrifices.
Some Beliefs and Practices in Relation to Eclipses
• People believe that the said solar eclipse is a
sign of coming tragedy that will happen within the
area where it can be seen. They considered it as
a message from the gods and goddesses.
• Ancient astronomers believed that eclipses
proved that Earth is round and not flat

The basics of solar eclipse

  • 2. • An eclipse is a natural shading or darkening of one celestial body by another.
  • 3.
  • 4. • A solar eclipse or the eclipse of the sun occurs when the moon passes between Earth and the sun, the moon casts a shadow over Earth.
  • 5. Syzygy is the nearly straight-line formation of three celestial bodies – which lasts only for about 7.5 minutes.
  • 6.
  • 7. TOTAL ECLIPSE - happens when the dark shadow of the moon completely obscures the intensely bright light of the sun, allowing much fainter solar corona to be visible - occurs when total darkness is experienced
  • 8. ANNULAR ECLIPSE - When the moon appears to pass across the middle of the sun but is too small to cover the disk of the sun completely, an annular eclipse occur.
  • 9. ANNULAR ECLIPSE - The sun seems to be a very bright ring surrounding the dark disc of the moon. - rare type of eclipse - can be observed only during the new moon
  • 10. ANNULAR ECLIPSE - The sun seems to be a very bright ring surrounding the dark disc of the moon. - rare type of eclipse - can be observed only during the new moon

  • 12. The shadow of an eclipse has THREE DISTINCT REGIONS: • UMBRA - is a dark, slender cone part of the shadow where all sunlight is completely blocked out - it is surrounded by the penumbra • PENUMBRA - a lighter, funnel-shaped, outer part shadow from which the sunlight is partially obscured
  • 13. The shadow of an eclipse has THREE DISTINCT REGIONS: • ANTUMBRA - is the region from which the occluding body appears entirely contained within the disc of the light source
  • 14. HYBRID ECLIPSE - is comparatively rare - In some areas on the surface of Earth it appears as a total eclipse, whereas at other points it appears as an annular eclipse
  • 15. PARTIAL ECLIPSE - occurs when the sun and the moon are not exactly in line and the moon only partially obscures the sun - can usually be seen from a large part of Earth outside of the track of an annular or total eclipse
  • 16. Safety during Eclipse Observation • You are advised not to look directly at the sun with the naked eye or with any optical device such as binoculars or a telescope, as doing so can lead to blindness. • One of the easiest ways to view a daytime eclipse without damaging the eyes is by wearing a solar filter (figure 11.10).
  • 17. How a Solar Eclipse Happens • The sun is farther away than the moon, but is a much larger celestial object. • In a solar eclipse, the moon and the sun appear almost the same size. • Solar eclipses occur during the new moon, when the moon is between the Earth and the sun. • There are at least two lunar eclipses each year, although a number of these are only penumbral, when the moon is not seen to be darkened very much.
  • 18. Some Beliefs and Practices in Relation to Eclipses • In olden times, people say that an evil spirit or a dragon is trying to swallow the sun. Those who believed this would make noise by beating gongs, by screaming or crying , by shouting, or by hitting other metallic objects to cast out the evil spirit or dragon who overshadowed the solar disk. Some people practiced various rituals to return the sun in the sky. After the sun cameback, they celebrated this event with animal sacrifices.
  • 19. Some Beliefs and Practices in Relation to Eclipses • People believe that the said solar eclipse is a sign of coming tragedy that will happen within the area where it can be seen. They considered it as a message from the gods and goddesses. • Ancient astronomers believed that eclipses proved that Earth is round and not flat
