Solar Eclipse 2010 Live Streaming | 15 Jan 2010 Solar Eclipse Live

First full Solar Eclipse 2010 & longest of Millennium
 
 
The first solar eclipse will take place over Dhanushkodi town in Tamil Nadu state of India. From there people will be able to see a full Solar eclipse and what is called 'ring of fire' where the suns rays surrounds the sun making it appear as if the moon is on fire.
This will also be the longest solar eclipse of this millennium that is from 2001 to 3000. Lasting about ten minuets and thirty seconds at its fullest but the whole process of the eclipse will start at 11 am and end around 3:15 pm. The whole 'effect' of the eclipse will be visible for 300 km wide track that will span over half the Earth.
There are many stages and aspects of a solar eclipse the best part has to be the ring of fire but there are also the partial eclipse that would be visible for other countries. The path of the moon starts in Africa at 10:44 am then passes through Chad, Central African Republic, Congo, Uganda, Kenya and Somalia it will then cross over the Indian Ocean where it's central path will continue in Asia through the extreme Southern part of India, Bangladesh, Myanmar ending in China.
What also makes this a special solar eclipse is the fact that this is the first time since 1965 November 22 India will see the Ring of Fire and will not be seen again until 2020 June 21.
All of this will take place on the 15 January 2010 and remember you should not look directly at the sun during that time especially those in the Tamil Nadu area. There would be universities and schools setting up 'viewing' apparatus on the roofs for those who wants a closer look.
