See where and when the Annular Solar Eclipse is visible on June 10, 2021 in this moon shadow visualization created by NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center. Guide: 'Ring of fire' eclipse: www.space.com/ring-of-fire-an...
Unless I failed geometry in school (pretty sure I didn't, got top grades) that shouldn't be possible. Anyone care to explain what I'm not understanding here?
@@satisfactoryfromscratch the sun is a point source of light the earth has a rotation angle the moon has an orbit angle you combine all of those and you get the moon blocks the north pole
@@satisfactoryfromscratch the moon on average is 350,000 km away from the earth. The moon's orbital angle is about 5 degrees iirc. With that, the angle of the moon can easily go above the line of the earth's north pole as the radius of the earth is a mere 6400km only. FYI the paths and timings of solar and lunar eclipses can be easily and accurately predicted for the next 100 years. Information about this is easily available online. This is because astronomical events do not glitch and so periodical events can be ascertained with extremely high accuracy. That's how spacecraft can be sent literally billions of kilometres away to planets that are like needles in a haystack!
I was 5 or 6, have to find out... playing outside... we had all the animals in our household... I could here the chickens, ducks,pigs, bees,birds... the nature was buzzing all around. Suddenly... everything became silent... I stopped my play under 100th years old tree and remember asking myself "what is this?" My first Sun eclipse. I will never forget.🌞🌚
The sun 23.04 deg north moon 23.8 deg north, overlap on the 10th from approx india to Morocco. I.e. the spot will be approx Cairo to carthage and less than 1 deg diff should produce a ring. Why they are saying it's up at the ice just before the solstice is nonsense and probably means there's a lot more hinging on this "sign"....
