Total eclipse of the sun in China on July 22

If now you’re in China, you will be the lucky one, because the solar eclipse will take place on July 22, 2009, in China, which will be a longest total eclipse of the sun that will occur in the twenty-first century.

China had the earliest records about the solar eclipse up to more than 1000B.C. In ancient, Chinese people thought the solar eclipse as a horrible thing, it also meant unlucky in other civilization.

Well, when we see the solar eclipse, what should we pay attention to? We can’t look it directly, we can use special tools to protect our eyes, such as two or three pieces of scrap film, solar eclipse glasses and so on, and we can also look it under the tree’s shadow.

This time, China will be the best country to observe the eclipse, and Hangzhou, Jiaxing and Shanghai are the best observation sites, especially Anji of Zhejiang province, according to scientists, where the eclipse will last for more than 5 minutes.
