22 JULY 2009 SOLAR ECLIPSE

We have heard for the last week about this solar eclipse. In Singapore, we will get to see it around 08:40:51 AM to 09:43:55 AM local time. I hope the sky is clear tomorrow!



This solar eclipse is the longest total solar eclipse that will occur in the twenty-first century, and will not be surpassed in duration until June 13, 2132. Totality will last for up to 6 minutes and 39 seconds, with the maximum eclipse occurring in the ocean at 02:35:21 UTC about 100 km south of the Bonin Islands, southeast of Japan. The North Iwo Jima island is the landmass with totality time closest to maximum.

DON'T MISS THIS!
