On Wednesday, 2009 July 22, a total eclipse of the Sun is visible from within a narrow corridor that traverses half of Earth. The path of the Moon's umbral shadow begins in India and crosses through Nepal, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Myanmar and China. After leaving mainland Asia, the path crosses Japan's Ryukyu Islands and curves southeast through the Pacific Ocean where the maximum duration of totality reaches 6 min 39 s. A partial eclipse is seen within the much broader path of the Moon's penumbral shadow, which includes most of eastern Asia, Indonesia, and the Pacific Ocean.

A total eclipse of the Sun is one of the grandest natural phenomena and the most spectacular celestial event. A total eclipse of the Sun occurs when the Moon passes between the Sun and the Earth and obscures the Sun completely. Channel 8 is gonna showing the total sun eclipse at 8:00 or 8:00am that day , but i m at school == I wanna watch it , Live !! T.T
