This Morning (March 29), during a partial solar eclipse, the moon bit off more than it could Chew, Taking a Dramaatic 'Bite' out of the Sun. From Crisp Crescent-Shaped Suns to the Rare 'Devil's Horns' and 'Double Sunrise,' March's Solar Eclipse Left Skywatches in Awe-Especially that in the Right Place.
A partial solar eclipse occurs when the moon partally covers the Sun, Lending a Glowing Crescent. Globally, The Eclipse Began at 4:50 AM EDT (0850 GMT), with the maximum eclipse peaking at 6:47 am EDT (1047 GMT). Skywatches in parts of north America and europe, and enjoyed the best views.
Unlike a Total Solar Eclipse, The Sun was Never Completely Blocked, So Observers Needed Solar Viewing Equipment Such as Solar Eclipse Glasses or Special Solar Filers, TELESCORASCORASCORES And binoculars to enjoy the sun safely.
This solar eclipse was especially memorable for me – it was the best one i've ever Seen! Unfortunately, Last April's Total Solar Eclipse was a Bust For Me, and the UK's Weather Tends to be Uncooperative for Celestial Events, often Hidding Them Behind Think Clouds. But not today!
