[Commentary] On June 21, a wonderful "circular eclipse" was staged in Tianyu. The central part of the sun is dark, but the edges are still bright, forming a dazzling "gold ring" in the sky, which is spectacular.
[Explanation] The ring-shaped eclipse enters from Tibet Ali. Sichuan, Guizhou, Hunan, Jiangxi, Fujian and Taiwan can see "circular eclipses", and most other regions can see partial eclipses of varying degrees. Hu Fanghao, an engineer from the Science Department of the Purple Mountain Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said that the "eclipse" of this "circular eclipse" is very large. The largest "eclipse" in China can reach 0.995, which is almost close to total eclipse.

The "Summer Solstice" is actually the sun directly hitting the Tropic of Cancer. This was originally the relationship between the sun and the earth. The moon ran to the middle, grabbed a "C" position, blocked the sun, and the "eclipse" occurred, so this is a rare one. See the solar eclipse on the summer solstice.
[Commentary] What is the "Phnom Penh solar eclipse", Hu Fanghao described to reporters.

This eclipse is also called "Phnom Penh eclipse", it is a solar eclipse with a very large eclipse, so in the eclipse phase, we can see that the bright edge left by the sun is very very narrow, so we call it "Phnom Penh" eclipse". In the eclipse phase, its duration is very short, no more than a minute, only a few tens of seconds, is a very exciting celestial phenomenon.
【Explanation】Because it is located outside the "circular eclipse zone", partial eclipse is visible in Nanjing, the capital of Jiangsu Province.

The food score in Nanjing can reach about 0.78, the starting time is about 14:40 in the afternoon, when the food is eaten, it is about 16:03, and the recovery is about 17:10.
[Commentary] Hu Fanghao said that people and astronomy enthusiasts should not look directly at the sun with their eyes, they can poke a small hole in the paper, and use the principle of small hole imaging to watch the "eclipse" projection on the ground

The solar eclipse and partial solar eclipse are a very wonderful astronomical phenomenon, because today's weather is missed, don't be too sorry, you can pay attention to the rest of this year's wonderful astronomical phenomena, such as our Perseid meteor shower and Gemini meteor shower this year, you can expect .
