A solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes between the sun and the Earth, blocking the sun’s light and creating a temporary shadow on Earth.
Total solar eclipses occur about once every 18 months, but they are not always visible from the same location on Earth.
Yes, scientists can accurately predict when and where a total solar eclipse will occur using mathematical models and precise measurements of the moon and Earth’s orbit.
A total solar eclipse can last from a few seconds to a maximum of 7 minutes and 30 seconds, depending on the location and position of the viewer.
It is only safe to watch a total solar eclipse with proper eye protection, as looking directly at the sun can cause permanent eye damage. It is also important to follow safety guidelines and not look at the sun through any type of camera, telescope, or binoculars without a solar filter.
