Tomorrow August 1, 2008, will occur a total eclipse of the sun on the part of the Earth. NASA Television will provide live event for observers worldwide via Internet, thanks to a partnership created between the University of California, Berkeley and the Exploratorium. On August 1, the total solar eclipse will be visible to the naked eye in parts of Canada, northern Greenland, the Arctic, central Russia, Mongolia and China. dornier do 24 The eclipse will cover the Earth in a narrow path that begins in the northern province of Canada called Nunavut and end in the northern region of Silk Road from China to sunset. A solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes directly between Earth and the sun. When the shadow of the moon reflected on Earth, people who are within that shadow look like the moon blocking some of the sunlight. The shadow of the Moon has two parts, a umbra and penumbra.

During a total solar eclipse, as that will happen tomorrow, the moon will cover the entire Sun for observers located in the umbral shadow of the Moon. Those who are watching the eclipse in the area of the penumbral shadow of the moon look like the moon cover part of the sun. At the moment of totality, when the Sun is completely obscured by the shadow of the moon, outer atmosphere Sun, called the solar corona, it will become visible. This is a rare sight to see and coveted by experienced observers of eclipses and also a stunning dornier do 24 view for new viewers. The solar corona extends more than 620,000 miles of the visible surface of the Sun and reaches temperatures of up to 2 million degrees.
