THE WONDERS OF THE ECLIPSE OF 21ST AUGUST 2017

-

The solar eclipse of August 21, 2017, was visible within a band across the entire contiguous United States passing from the Pacific to the Atlantic coasts. As a partial solar eclipse, it was visible on land from Nunavut in northern Canada to as far south as northern South America. In northwestern Europe and Africa, it was partially visible in the late evening. In Asia it was visible only at the eastern extremity, the Chukchi Peninsula.
A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partly obscuring the image of the Sun for a viewer on Earth. A total solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is larger than the Sun's, blocking all direct sunlight, turning day into darkness. Totality occurs in a narrow path across Earth's surface, with the partial solar eclipse visible over a surrounding region thousands of kilometers wide.

Source:dailymail.co.uk EXCLUSIVE: From a long line of strong women: Beyonce's family tree reveals her great-great-great grandmother was a slave who married a wealthy white merchant in a 'love match'  Time and again superstar singer Beyonce has topped polls as the world’s most beautiful woman. Few who saw the front cover of the most recent edition of Vogue, which featured a dramatic photo of the multimillionaire music icon posing in floral headdress and white Victorian-style dress, would care to disagree. Just as captivating was the remarkably candid interview that accompanied it, in which the usually reserved Beyonce opened up about her black, white and mixed-race ancestors who hailed from Louisiana, in America’s Deep South, where a brutal slave trade flourished for nearly 150 years until abolition in the middle of the 19th century. Beyonce explains to Vogue that her family has had its ups and downs, particularly with relationships. Scroll down for video  Beyonce&
