Solar Eclipse 2014

Where? When? It already happened! It occurred on Thursday, October 23 It was visible across most of the U.S.A., Canada, and the most eastern parts of Asia The best time for viewing was from 5:45 PM to 6:30 PM visibility was good- there were a few clouds Temperature be around the 50’s It wasn’t a total eclipse from Connecticut, but a partial eclipse was visible. WARNING: Never view a solar eclipse with a telescope, binoculars, or the unaided eye. astronomers use special filters to see the eclipse.

Why? Ancient Greek mythology sees an eclipse as a sign that the gods are angry. Once, a terrible battle took place in the path of an eclipse. The warring armies immediately dropped their weapons and made peace with each other. The ancient Chinese believed that the fire dragon had set the sun aflame, and the way to keep it from devouring their sun was to unite and make as much noise as possible to scare it away. Europe’s Stonehenge has been theorized to predict the motions of the sun and moon. To add to this idea, it has been recorded that Europeans had predicted solar eclipses days or even weeks before they happened.

How? Thanks to today’s science, we now know that an eclipse is not a sign from an angry god, or a fire dragon setting the sun aflame. A solar eclipse is the result of the moon passing over the sun, so it just looks like the sun is being eaten by a dragon. : ) It is not to be confused with a lunar eclipse, which is in fact the Earth’s shadow on the moon.
