The solar eclipse of January 15, 2010 is an annular eclipse of the Sun with a magnitude of 0.9190. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partially obscuring Earth's view of the Sun. An annular solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is smaller than the Sun, causing the sun to look like an annulus (ring), blocking most of the Sun's light. An annular eclipse appears as a partial eclipse over a region thousands of kilometres wide.

The eclipse starts at the Central African Republic, traverses Cameroon, DR Congo and Uganda, passes through Nairobi, Kenya, enters the Indian Ocean and reaches its greatest eclipse.

After that it enters Maldives, where it would be the longest on land with 10.8 minutes of viewing.

  • Palestine is not in the bible,Israel is...

  • The heart chakra formation shows up during the eclipse, a sign of Kenya's blessing, also known as the star of David. Even though it can't be found in Palestine. It's found in the great pyramid and several pyramids in Nubia.

  • i know it has to do with the senses ... i haven't read the book yet ..

  • holy shit!!! is that the star of david? .... what is the name of it in Vedic? (indian)?
