The first glitter of the sun rays
- What NASA has to say about this eclipse is:
"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."

Lol.. I was sleeping when this Solar eclipse was happening. Surat was the first place to witness this event, but my bad luck :)
I got up at 5am to watch the entire thing live on TV.
Well I'll be uploading the best video from you-tube soon.
I saw it on you-tube. It was simply superb.
I know. Just wish I could have witnessed it visually.
