Total solar eclipse in August 1 day

Brief introduction of total solar eclipse in China in 2008

The eclipse is divided into 1.039, and the longest total eclipse lasts for 2 minutes and 27 seconds. It can be seen in northeastern North America, Europe and parts of Asia, including northern Canada, Greenland, Russia, Siberia, Mongolia and China. In China, considering the height of the sun, weather geography, traffic and other comprehensive factors, the total solar eclipse belt mainly sweeps the northwest of China, where the probability of sunny weather is high.

The area where the total solar eclipse occurred was banded. In addition to Barkun County and Yiwu County in Xinjiang, there will also be a very short total solar eclipse in Jiuquan, Gansu. On the same day, a partial solar eclipse can be observed in Urumqi.

Next August 1 day 18: 09, the sun will begin to lose its first sight near Barkun. By 19: 08, the sun will be completely blocked, which is called an eclipse. The duration of the total solar eclipse is 1: 55, and the sunlight will gradually appear at 19: 55. When a total solar eclipse occurs, it will go through the process from day to night and then to day in a very short time, and the alternation of day and night will be shortened to a few minutes, which is the best time to observe the corona.
