Big News - Eclipse will come!


Salut all!
From the news on the papers and TVs, Indonesians will have the rare opportunity to view a solar eclipse Monday afternoon, January 26th, as the archipelago is the only land mass on earth from which the annual cosmic occurrence will be visible.
The news said that the fullest form will be occur through the southern part of Sumatra, the western part of Java and the central part of Kalimantan.

The scientists also said that it is extremely harmful/dangerous to view a solar eclipse directly with unprotected eyes or common sunglasses.
So they gave 2 tips to watch the eclipse:
  1. Watch the eclipse through sunglasses
  2. The shadow of the eclipse can also safely be viewed in a reflection, for example from water in a bucket.
Phew, it's a greatest rare moment that we can see it, and it will happen on the Chinese New Year. Is there any connection between these 2 great moment (Eclipse and Chinese New Year) ??

And I think maybe we can only see this solar eclipse once for a life...!
I hope there will be nobody that miss it..!

    arkacyde said to me via sms (hahahaha) that the solar ring eclipse won't happen on monday morning, but on the afternoon about 15.20-15.30.

    but, jakarta, surabaya, denpasar can only see a partial eclipse. sumatera, kalimantan and sulawesi can see it fully, though.

    don't miss it guys, it's not an annual event!!

    ^.^

    hahaha,,

    i missed it too, hehehe. but i think the sky is dark around that time.

    do you guys know, some people said that a disaster will happen to the place where we can see the "sky event" perfectly. so, if we in malang can see the eclipse perfectly, a disaster will happen in malang..

    i don't know whether it is correct or not, but i think it is only a myth (or anything the term is) which doesn't have any scientific explanation.

    do you have any information about it?
    share with me here!
