Second Report on Eclipse
08 August 2009

Reported By Platinum Butterfly
and Horizon Sim

From around 8.41a.m. to 9.44a.m. that morning, 22 July 2009, the longest eclipse ever in the century, lasting 6 minutes, was observed. A complete eclipse in rare and the next complete eclipse is predicted to be happening in 2132.

In India, the eclipse started at 0620 and the whole sky is darkened. An old man was stepped to death duem to the bad weather and large crowd. Many Indians went there for religious purposes.Moreover, a company in India launched an idea of "near observing eclipse in the sky" with the airplane flying up on the sky at around 0800 that day.

In the another country, China, the whole city went dark and lights were all lit up and the sun was covered by the moon for 6 minutes and 39 seconds. The scene was amazing with a crowd removing their sunglasses when the sun is completely missing. In the past, Chinese used to believe that the sun was ate by the dog and it is a bad omen, but it has been proven it wrong.

For the rain in the morning and black clouds, Singapore cannot observe any signs of eclipse, not as some scientists' hypothesis saying "10% of the sun can be seen blacked out".
