  1. Hi Limen!

    You've missed the last solar eclipse for 2008.

    There are two solar eclipses in 2009, however.  

    - An annular eclipse of the sun will be visible in parts of Sumatra, Java and Borneo shortly before sunset on January 26th.  The partial eclipse can be seen that morning across all of southern Africa, Madagascar, and late in the afternoon in southeast Asia and most of Australia.

    - The grandest total eclipse of the sun in the entire Twenty-first Century will cross northern India and then down the Blue River valley of China on July 22.  No other total eclipse before 2114 will last as long.  The rest of east Asia, except for the far northern tier of Siberia, will see a partial solar eclipse that July morning.

    - If you don't want to wait that long, there's a deep partial eclipse of the moon in the wee hours of this Sunday morning, August 17th, which can be seen in all parts of Asia (except Kamchatka and the Anadyr peninsula of Siberia), and the same eclipse late Saturday evening the 16th in Europe, Africa and South America.  Eighty percent of the lunar disc will be covered, all but a thin crescent over the moon's north pole.


  2. the next total solar eclipse will be on July 22nd 2009

    The path of the Moon's umbral shadow begins in India and crosses through Nepal, Bangladesh, Bhutan and China before curving south across the Pacific Ocean. A partial eclipse is seen within the much broader path of the Moon's penumbral shadow, which includes most of eastern Asia, Indonesia, and the Pacific Ocean.
