Translated text: "It is called a rare celestial phenomenon because a total solar eclipse will not be visible again until August 2044. Meanwhile, a new annular eclipse will occur in 2046. "Before you actually see a total eclipse, it is very difficult to explain. When you witness totality, you can feel how it has a great impact on humanity for thousands of years. It is one of the most beautiful experiences," said Dr. John Mulchaey from the Carnegie Institution for Science, who serves as the director of the Carnegie H. Greenewalt at the Carnegie Observatory."

Although the main treat is the totality and the annular eclipse, the phases leading up to it are also worth experiencing. The problem is that during an eclipse, the Moon does not suddenly appear between the Earth and the Sun. It all starts with a partial eclipse when the Moon appears to 'bite' the Sun. Depending on the location, this partial eclipse can last between 70 and 80 minutes. For those outside the path of totality, the partial eclipse will only appear as a large crescent moon.

Partial eclipse is the longest phase of the total solar eclipse phenomenon. This partial eclipse has specific signs before becoming a total solar eclipse. "About 15 to 20 minutes before totality, the sky starts to get a very strange and gloomy color. Almost like gray because the Sun is very high in the sky, but almost completely blocked (by the Moon)." It's not like sunset or sunrise when the (Sun) position is low in the sky. Suddenly, you lose most of the sunlight, and it feels very strange," explained Mulchaey.

During a total eclipse, observers will be able to see the Sun's corona very clearly using the naked eye. The corona is the Sun's outer atmosphere, which is extremely hot. The corona emits light that is visible around the Moon during an eclipse. Usually, the corona is difficult to see because the surface of the Sun is much brighter. During a total eclipse, the corona will resemble a stream of white light.

The total solar eclipse will cause bright stars or planets like Venus to shine in the dark sky. The air temperature there will drop drastically as the sunlight disappears. The sudden darkness during the eclipse also causes animals to behave unusually. "We may start to see nocturnal behavior, such as the emergence of cricket or bat sounds." The animals stop their daytime behavior. Birds choose to remain silent in their nests or flying insects cease their activities," said Dr. Andrew Farnsworth, a guest scientist at the Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology.
