      Solar Eclipse

      Follow Following
      -  Followers

      A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, temporarily blocking the Sun's light and casting a shadow on parts of the Earth. Solar eclipses are of four types: total, partial, annular, and hybrid. During a total solar eclipse, the Moon completely covers the Sun, creating a moment of darkness in the middle of the day. Annular eclipses, on the other hand, leave a visible "ring of fire," as the Moon appears smaller than the Sun, leaving its outer edges visible.

      Solar eclipses are significant astronomical events that have been observed, recorded, and even feared in different cultures throughout history. They often provide opportunities for scientific research, particularly in studying the Sun's corona, the outermost layer of the solar atmosphere. However, it is essential to view solar eclipses with proper protective eyewear, as looking directly at the Sun can cause severe eye damage.

      In June 2020, BOOM fact-checked a viral image claimed to be a photo of a solar eclipse taken by a pilot from the cockpit.

      BOOM found that the image was actually a digital artwork that had been circulating online since 2017, debunking the false claim.
