The solar eclipse in 2009

There will be two solar eclipses and four lunar eclipses in 2009, as follows:

65438+126 October: annular solar eclipse

February 9: Penumbral eclipse

July 7: Penumbral eclipse

July 22: Total solar eclipse

August 6: Penumbral eclipse

65438+February 3 1: Partial eclipse of the moon

126 October 65438+ annular solar eclipse

The first solar eclipse in 2009 occurred in the west of Capricorn, the rising point of the moon. The annular eclipse can be seen on a wide path across the Indian Ocean and western Indonesia. Partial solar eclipse will be seen in the wider penumbra of the moon, including 1/3 in southern Africa, Madagascar, Australia (except Tasmania), southeast India, southeast Asia and Indonesia.

The annular eclipse began in the South Atlantic at 06:06 Universal Time, and the earth's pseudoumbra was connected with the earth, forming an annular eclipse belt with a width of 363 kilometers. The shadow moved eastward, sweeping across southern Africa, about 900 kilometers from the mainland. Then slowly turn northeast and cross the South Indian Ocean. The largest eclipse occurred at 07:58:39 UT, when the eclipse reached 0.9282. At this moment, the duration of the annular eclipse is 7 minutes and 54 seconds, the width of the annular eclipse zone is 280 kilometers, and the sun on the open ocean is 73 degrees above the horizon.

The annular eclipse belt continues to move to the northeast, and finally touches the ground in Corcos (coconut island), reaching the southern tip of Sumatra Island and the western part of Java Island (Figure 2). At 09:40 Universal Time, the duration of the annular eclipse in the central belt of the eclipse was 6 minutes 18 seconds, and the solar horizon was 25. At the last moment, the artifact passed through the central part of kalimantan island (Borneo) and swept across the northern edge of Sulawesi, ending before reaching Mindanao, at 09:52 Universal Time. During the annular eclipse lasting for 3 hours and 46 minutes, the moon's pseudoumbra travels about 14500 km, covering 0.9% of the earth's surface area. Table 1 gives the parameters of the solar eclipse belt and the solar eclipse on the center line.

Partial solar eclipse can be seen in southern Africa, Australia, Southeast Asia and Indonesia. Table 2 shows the situation of eating in several cities. All time is world time. At the same time, the food fraction, sun height, orientation and food area are also given.

This eclipse is the 50th time of the Sharo cycle 13 1. This eclipse began in June 1 65438+August1in 2025, and it is rare for the eclipse family to have a partial eclipse for 22 days. In this eclipse family, the first central eclipse in the northern hemisphere occurred on March 27th, 1522. From 1630 to 1702, after five days of total solar eclipse, five total solar eclipses were formed. The first annular solar eclipse began in June 1720. This series of eclipses will also include 29 annular eclipses, and the last one will be on June 18, 2243. The Sharo cycle 13 1 will end 7 days after the partial solar eclipse on September 2, 2369. The 70-day solar eclipse of Sharo period 13 1 can be referred to as follows:
