The National Astronomical Research Institute has revealed that the
Earth will witness Monday, August 21, a total solar eclipse only with
the sky of the United States. The eclipse path will cut the country from
the west coast to the east coast. This event will not be seen in the
sky of the Arab world.
The National Astronomical Research Institute said in a statement just recently that the event was described as "the Great American Eclipse" because it is a complete solar eclipse and will be visible within a belt that crosses the entire adjacent US state.The National Astronomical Research Institute noted that the eclipse of June 8, 1918 was the last visible eclipse of the entire United States.The Institute explained that the solar eclipse is an astronomical phenomenon occurs when the moon passes between the earth and the sun and all three objects on the integrity of almost one, and therefore the moon obscures the disk of the sun in whole or in part to the scenes on the ground."The total solar eclipse occurs when the diameter of the moon is greater than the sun," said Dr. Yasser Abdel Hady, a professor of sun at the institute. "The moon then obscures all direct sunlight in a narrow path across the earth's surface, turning the day into a night. Will happen tomorrow for two minutes and 40 seconds is the peak of eclipse.The total solar eclipse of the sun is the first solar eclipse since the solar eclipse of March 7, 1970, and the first solar eclipse seen from the United States since the solar eclipse of July 11, 1991, which was seen only from a part of Hawaii is the first total solar eclipse seen from the United States since 1979.
