I would really hope that we are able to see it in Singapore.

Answer 1

No chance of seeing August 1 eclipse in Singapore. Eclipse that day, goes over the pole whereas Singapore is on Equator.

Answer 2

Hi Flyer!

The eclipse is completely invisible at Singapore.

Burma and parts of Thailand will be able to see a few minutes of the partial eclipse at sunset, but Singapore lies just beyond the end of the eclipse.
