ECLIPSE OF THE SUN AND MOON ECLIPSE(TOTAL ECLIPSE)


Various myth about the eclipse in various places on earth interesting to observe the preservation of cultural treasures of human wealth in the past. Giant Betara Kala Rahu swallowing the sun or because of his revenge on the Surya (sun), causing the eclipse. In the other hemisphere appears also the story of the Heavenly Dragon swallowing the sun or moon during an eclipse took place. No less interesting range of activities of living things done starting from the behavior that "less fair" by a group of people in rural areas like banging gong, hiding in his house with sealed all the doors and windows of houses, closed wells and water jars, diving in the river, banging coconut tree, bersembuni pregnant women under the bed, etc., as a reflection of the psychological fear due to the influence of myth eclipse belief, behavior and nocturnal animal out of its nest in the daytime, up to modern scientific research was done by humans.

In the dictionary of Natural Sciences, is actually an eclipse is usually a recurring natural phenomenon due to the moon and the earth's motion looping circle around the sun. Eclipse is a symptom of covering each other across the heavens.
Moon moves between the two hemispheres of the sky, north and south along the zodiac. At one time the moon passes in front of the sun and allow it so that a solar eclipse that can occur during phases of the moon dead or position conjunctions. Solar eclipse can be total solar eclipse, solar eclipse ring (anular) or a partial solar eclipse.

At other times, when the moon is in opposition to the sun or the appearance of full moon phases, months can pass through Earth's shadow, resulting in a lunar eclipse.
This eclipse can be a total lunar eclipse, the moon gehana part or penumbral eclipse (vague).

Moon and Earth form a cone illuminated by the sun's shadow effect. In the region there is a dark shadow (umbra) and the faint (penumbra). When a solar eclipse, the shadow of the moon fall to the earth's surface and moves along a certain area, called the eclipse path. This area consists of local and regional total eclipse partial eclipse. Regional total solar eclipse umbra shadow passed by the moon and solar eclipse local part only traversed by the shadow penumbranya. Places that have eclipse differs from one event to the next event, a result of the circulatory system of the earth to the sun and the circulation of the moon as a satellite of the earth.

Total solar eclipse is an event that has become much more important than any other solar eclipse and lunar eclipse, so we can investigate the properties of solar and terrestrial phenomena as well.

The aspects can be studied during a total solar eclipse, among others, the appearance of the corona of the sun, prominensa and khromosfer layer.
The occurrence of an eclipse is accompanied also by the maximum tide of events between the location of the sun, moon and earth are aligned. Another phenomenon occurred during a total solar eclipse is interesting to study: sudden weather changes, the behavior of living things on earth including human activity itself, all it is a physics research activities, biological or social. Total solar eclipse duration is relatively short, the longest only about 7 minutes.

Ring solar eclipse occurs when the umbra shadow cone peak months did not reach the earth's surface. This can happen because the earth-moon distance varies according to the trajectory ellipse circulation months. At the time of the solar eclipse this ring circle the moon looks smaller than the size of the sun disc.

Lunar eclipse is also interesting to watch and learn, for example, to test the accuracy of the calculation of the ephemeris (celestial coordinates). At that time the position of the moon, the earth dam sun exactly one line. If the moon moved in the shadow area penumba earth, signs of an eclipse is not visible, therefore we can observe is when the moon enters the Earth's umbra shadow. Lunar eclipse seen by almost half the earth, can last up to more than 3 hours.

Phases of the moon over an average of 29.5 days a month called sinodis. Not every month off a solar eclipse, so did not happen every full moon lunar eclipse. This is caused by the orbit of the moon to form an inclined plane by 5 degrees to the plane of the ecliptic. The intersection of these two fields which form a nodal line rotates to the west in a period of 18.6 years, called nutasi month period. The position of the sun near a nodal point is called an eclipse season, which is repeated in every 173.3 days. The combination nodal line rotation period and the period of phases of the moon causes a similar eclipse will be repeated every 18 years 11.3 days, called the Saros period. Each iteration period of Saros, the eclipse path on the earth will shift into place, due to the price of Saros period is not unanimous. If the first eclipse season falls in January, a solar eclipse can occur 5 times in one year. Maximum number of all kinds of good eclipse eclipse eclipse of the sun and moon in one year can occur up to 7 times.

The moments of the solar eclipse and lunar eclipse can be calculated in advance before, because the system is the movement of earth around the sun and the moon around the earth has been known with precision.
