Temperatures are forecast to be within the 12 C to 17 C vary all through the week in Edmonton.

That is a number of levels above common for this time of 12 months (common excessive is 9 C).

Morning lows ought to persistently a level or three above 0 C.

Many of the week appears to be like dry, nonetheless there’s an opportunity of some night showers on Tuesday.

Exterior of that, no important probability of precipitation this week.

As for the partial eclipse:

We’re calling for partly cloudy situations by way of the day, so it’s going to be contact and go to view the partial photo voltaic eclipse.

The moon will block roughly one-third of the solar over the lunch hour as we speak.

The eclipse will happen from roughly midday to 1:30 p.m., with the height at about 12:45 p,m.

I am a bit involved that persons are anticipating greater than they are going to truly get from this partial eclipse.

As a result of the “path of totality” is over a few of North America’s largest media markets, there’s been a LOT of hype.

BUT…Alberta is so distant from that path of totality, that as we speak’s occasion could seem a bit underwhelming for some.

Anyway, as you have heard one million instances: Do not look instantly on the solar with out correct eye safety (and, no, sun shades do not rely).

The Telus World of Science Edmonton says it’s offered out of eclipse glasses, however they ARE holding a protected viewing occasion together with the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada.

This is the forecast for Edmonton and space:

At this time – Partly cloudy.

Excessive: 15

Tonight – Partly cloudy.

9pm: 9

Tuesday – Mixture of solar & cloud. 40% probability of showers within the night.

Wind changing into NW 20 gusting to 40 km/h within the afternoon.

Nicolas Mahut and Edouard Roger-Vasselin in motion Tuesday on the Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters.
By ATP Employees

Tuesday, ninth April
Nicolas Mahut and Edouard Roger-Vasselin held their nerve for a powerful opening victory on Tuesday on the Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters.

The all-French duo downed fifth seeds Santiago Gonzalez and Neal Skupski 6-3, 7-6(7) in a heavy-hitting first-round conflict on the ATP Masters 1000 occasion in Monaco. Mahut and Roger-Vasselin saved all 4 break factors they confronted within the match, in line with Infosys ATP Stats, and likewise rescued the second-set tie-break when set level down at 6/7 earlier than sealing their win.

The 2016 Monte-Carlo champion Mahut and his associate Roger-Vasselin will subsequent tackle residence favorite Romain Arneodo and Austrian Sam Weissborn. The 2023 finalists booked their second-round spot within the Principality with a 7-6(0), 7-6(2) triumph in opposition to Ugo Humbert and Fabrice Martin.

Simone Bolelli and Andrea Vavassori had been additionally straight-sets winners on Tuesday. The Italians downed Arthur Rinderknech and Valentin Vacherot 7-6(5), 6-2 to set a maiden Lexus ATP Head2Head conflict with eighth seeds Maximo Gonzalez and Andres Molteni.

Within the last match of the day, singles stars Taylor Fritz and Holger Rune continued their doubles run in Monte-Carlo by upsetting the in-form Wesley Koolhof and Nikola Mektic 4-6, 6-3, 12/10. Fritz and Rune saved a match level at 8/9 within the Match Tie-break earlier than rallying to a 93-minute second-round triumph.

Monday, eighth April
Singles stars Taylor Fritz and Holger Rune earned a first-round doubles win on the Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters Monday after they moved previous Lloyd Glasspool and Jean-Julien Rojer 6-3, 6-3.

It’s the second time Fritz and Rune have teamed in Monte-Carlo after they reached the quarter-finals final yr.

Italian singles stars Jannik Sinner and Lorenzo Sonego claimed the primary set in opposition to Sander Gille and Joran Vliegen earlier than the Belgian duo rebounded to win 6-7(3), 7-5, 10-7.

Wesley Koolhof and Nikola Mektic began their quest for his or her fourth trophy of the season with a 7-5, 5-7, 10-7 win in opposition to Hugo Nys and Jan Zielinski after two hours. The seventh seeds will subsequent play Fritz and Rune.

Individuals Nathaniel Lammons and Jackson Withrow superior, defeating Jamie Murray and Michael Venus 6-4, 6-4. Lammons and Withrow are chasing their first title of the season collectively this week.

Maximo Gonzalez and Andres Molteni additionally received, beating Nicolas Jarry and Lorenzo Musetti 6-4, 6-3. The eighth seeds received a title on clay in Cordoba earlier this yr.

Sander Gille and Joran Vliegen moved previous Italians Jannik Sinner and Lorenzo Sonego 6-7(3), 7-5, 10-7. Sinner will make face Alejandro Davidovich Fokina or Sebastian Korda in his opening-round singles match in Monte-Carlo.

Sunday, seventh April
Marcelo Arevalo and Mate Pavic made a profitable begin on the Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters on Sunday after they moved previous singles stars Grigor Dimitrov and Sebastian Korda 6-4, 6-4.

The El Salvador-Croatian group received 84 per cent (27/32) of their first-serve factors and saved each break factors they confronted to triumph after 77 minutes. Arevalo and Pavic will subsequent play high seeds Rohan Bopanna and Matthew Ebden.

Earlier this season, Arevalo and Pavic received the title on the ATP 250 hard-court occasion in Hong Kong.

Karen Khachanov and Andrey Rublev additionally superior, defeating Daniil Medvedev and Roman Safiullin 7-6(1), 6-2.

Final week, on the annual Rencontres de Moriond convention, the CMS collaboration introduced a measurement of the efficient leptonic electroweak mixing angle. The result’s probably the most exact measurement carried out at a hadron collider to this point and is in good settlement with the prediction from the Commonplace Mannequin.

The Commonplace Mannequin of particle physics is probably the most exact description to this point of particles and their interactions. Exact measurements of its parameters, mixed with exact theoretical calculations, yield spectacular predictive energy that enables phenomena to be decided even earlier than they’re straight noticed.

On this manner, the mannequin efficiently constrained the plenty of the W and Z bosons (found at CERN in 1983), of the highest quark (found at Fermilab in 1995) and, most not too long ago, of the Higgs boson (found at CERN in 2012). As soon as these particles had been found, these predictions grew to become consistency checks for the mannequin, permitting physicists to discover the bounds of the idea’s validity.

On the similar time, precision measurements of the properties of those particles are a robust instrument for trying to find new phenomena past the Commonplace Mannequin—so-called “new physics”—since new phenomena would manifest themselves as discrepancies between varied measured and calculated portions.

The electroweak mixing angle is a key factor of those consistency checks. It’s a elementary parameter of the Commonplace Mannequin, figuring out how the unified electroweak interplay gave rise to the electromagnetic and weak interactions by means of a course of often called electroweak symmetry breaking. On the similar time, it mathematically ties collectively the plenty of the W and Z bosons that transmit the weak interplay. So, measurements of the W, the Z or the blending angle present an excellent experimental cross-check of the mannequin.

The 2 most exact measurements of the weak mixing angle had been carried out by experiments on the CERN LEP collider and by the SLD experiment on the Stanford Linear Accelerator Heart (SLAC). The values disagree with one another, which had puzzled physicists for over a decade. The brand new result’s in good settlement with the Commonplace Mannequin prediction and is a step in direction of resolving the discrepancy between the latter and the LEP and SLD measurements.

“This consequence reveals that precision physics may be carried out at hadron colliders,” says Patricia McBride, CMS spokesperson. “The evaluation needed to deal with the difficult surroundings of LHC Run 2, with a median of 35 simultaneous proton-proton collisions. This paves the best way for extra precision physics on the Excessive-Luminosity LHC, the place 5 instances extra proton pairs shall be colliding concurrently.”

Precision checks of the Commonplace Mannequin parameters are the legacy of electron-positron colliders, comparable to CERN’s LEP, which operated till the yr 2000 within the tunnel that now homes the LHC. Electron-positron collisions present an ideal clear surroundings for such high-precision measurements.

Proton–proton collisions within the LHC are more difficult for this type of research, despite the fact that the ATLAS, CMS and LHCb experiments have already supplied a plethora of recent ultra-precise measurements. The problem is especially attributable to enormous backgrounds from different physics processes than the one being studied and to the truth that protons, not like electrons, aren’t elementary particles.

For this new consequence, reaching a precision much like that of an electron-positron collider appeared like an unimaginable activity, however it has now been achieved.

The measurement introduced by CMS makes use of a pattern of proton–proton collisions collected from 2016 to 2018 at a center-of-mass power of 13 TeV and comparable to a complete built-in luminosity of 137 fb⁻¹, which means about 11,000 million million collisions.

The blending angle is obtained by means of an evaluation of angular distributions in collisions the place pairs of electrons or muons are produced. That is probably the most exact measurement carried out at a hadron collider to this point, enhancing on earlier measurements from ATLAS, CMS and LHCb.

Frenchman Arthur Fils defeated German fortunate loser Yannick Hanfmann 6-0, 6-2 to maneuver into the second spherical of the Monte-Carlo Masters at Monte-Carlo Nation Membership on Monday afternoon.

Fils, ranked No 36, will play Italian Lorenzo Musetti subsequent.

In case you plan to take a look at Monday’s complete photo voltaic eclipse and the one digicam you personal is one which doubles as a telephone, with a little bit preparation (and precaution) you would possibly nonetheless be capable of get some comparatively good photographs.

“All of it is determined by how a lot effort one desires to place into it,” says Sean Walker, an affiliate editor with Sky & Telescope journal. For starters, you will must put on eclipse glasses or related protecting eye gear whereas aiming your digicam and even simply observing the eclipse.

Within the U.S., the trail of totality for the very best views stretches from southern Texas, crossing via the South and Midwest and into the Northeast earlier than hitting Maine. However anybody within the continental U.S. can catch at the very least a partial eclipse, climate allowing.

Don’t search for — look down!

It will likely be attainable to seize fascinating photographs even in the event you do not stay in, or journey to, that swath the place the moon will seem to almost completely cowl the solar. “In case you’re inside a number of hundred miles of the trail of totality at most eclipse time,” Walker says, “the areas between leaves on timber and mainly something that makes a pinhole will undertaking a picture of the crescent solar on the bottom or on a wall … relying on how excessive the solar is on the time.”

That is a photograph that is “all straightforward peasy with a cellphone,” says John Meader, director of Northern Stars Planetarium and Instructional Companies in Fairfield, Maine. Another choice is to shoot the surroundings round you as it’s darkened because the eclipse reaches totality. “Possibly a earlier than and through shot of the identical scene to seize the altering gentle ranges,” he suggests.

Feeling extra formidable? A tripod is a should

In case you’re decided to take a direct photograph of the eclipse, you have to a bit extra preparation.

The important thing to getting a very good photograph is “a easy tripod that can maintain your cellphone steady so you may take footage and never wiggle round throughout the totality,” Walker says.

Even so, hitting the shutter button by hand might trigger undesirable jiggle. To keep away from that, think about a Bluetooth set off. Or set the digicam to “timer mode,” giving it just a few seconds to settle earlier than it snaps the image.

Randall Benton, a contract photographer with a ardour for photo voltaic eclipses, says the opposite possibility is to shoot video “simply because the solar goes darkish.” Though the standard of telephone video is not fairly nearly as good as a nonetheless picture, you may at all times extract a nonetheless from the video later, he says.

For finest outcomes, use your telephone’s guide settings

In case you’ve by no means fiddled along with your digicam’s settings, now’s a very good time. You may need to scale back the publicity, at the very least throughout the partial eclipse section, and in addition to set focus to “infinity.” (This is methods to entry guide controls for an iPhone or Android.) When you have a second pair of photo voltaic eclipse glasses, you should utilize them as a filter to cowl the digicam lens in your telephone, Benton says. It is going to defend your telephone’s digicam from attainable injury from lengthy publicity to direct daylight and offer you a extra dramatic shot.

“You need to preserve these photo voltaic glasses as shut in opposition to the lens as attainable, as a result of most of [them] have a mirror floor on either side,” he explains. If any gentle leaks in from the edges, “it could mirror off of the again facet of the filter and create glare or humorous reflections that may spoil the picture.”

In case you’re within the path of totality, remember to take away the filter when the magic second arrives. “Attempt to zoom in, since you’re not going to harm your eyes taking a look at totality. It is solely when the disk of the solar is seen that you just actually should not be taking a look at it straight with out filtration,” Meader says.

After all, you could possibly at all times go away the images to the professionals, stay within the second and take within the celestial present.

“Whereas it is nice to take your personal pictures, if that is your first eclipse, actually benefit from the expertise,” Walker says. “When [you] truly expertise totality, your thoughts has a tough time wrapping round that. … It is simply a tremendous expertise.”

It is well-known that through the photo voltaic eclipse, with out protecting gear the solar can harm your eyes completely. Nevertheless, your cellphone digicam may additionally be in danger. 

According to NASA, the cellphone sensor could possibly be at a excessive threat of harm like every other picture sensor if pointed instantly on the solar. 

“You would wish to make the most of the right filters identical to on every other digicam,” the Aeronautics and House company stated in a publish on X, previously Twitter. “The very best apply can be to carry a pair of eclipse glasses in entrance of your cellphone’s lenses when photographing the solar at any level apart from totality.”

To keep away from any harm to your smartphone digicam, you have to to buy an ISO-certified filter, ISO 12312-2. Whereas it isn’t really helpful to instantly observe a photo voltaic eclipse by your cellphone’s digicam or display with out correct filters or gear, you’ll be able to definitely use your cellphone to not directly view or seize the eclipse safely. 

Listed here are some methods you should use your cellphone throughout a photo voltaic eclipse:

Livestreams 

Many organizations, observatories, and information shops present livestreams of photo voltaic eclipses on-line. You may watch these livestreams in your cellphone to expertise the eclipse safely.

Pinhole projection 

Create a easy pinhole projector utilizing your cellphone and a chunk of cardboard or paper. Poke a small gap within the middle of the cardboard and maintain it between the solar and a flat floor, reminiscent of the bottom or one other piece of paper. The daylight passing by the pinhole will venture a picture of the partially eclipsed solar onto the floor, which you’ll observe safely.

Photo voltaic eclipse apps

There are quite a few cellular apps out there that present details about photo voltaic eclipses, together with timing, location, and simulations. These apps can improve your understanding and pleasure of the occasion whereas preserving you knowledgeable about security precautions

Methods to take an image of a photo voltaic eclipse along with your cellphone

Listed here are some ideas by NASA for taking photos of a complete photo voltaic eclipse. 

1. To take photos when the solar is partially eclipsed, you’ll want to make use of a particular photo voltaic filter to guard your digicam. Nevertheless, at totality, when the moon fully blocks the solar, be sure that to take away the filter so you’ll be able to see the solar’s outer ambiance – the corona.
2. In the event you don’t have a telephoto zoom lens, give attention to taking panorama pictures and seize the altering surroundings. Utilizing a tripod may help you stabilize the digicam and keep away from taking blurry photos when there’s low lighting. Moreover, utilizing a delayed shutter launch timer will permit you to snap pictures with out jiggling the digicam.
3. Anyplace you’ll be able to level your digicam can yield distinctive imagery, so you’ll want to compose some wide-angle photographs that may seize your eclipse expertise.
4. NASA photographer Invoice Ingalls recommends specializing in the human expertise of watching the eclipse. “The actual photos are going to be of the folks round you pointing, gawking, and watching it,” Ingalls famous. “These are going to be some nice moments to seize to indicate the emotion of the entire thing.”

There gained’t be a frontrunner on the planet who hasn’t skilled stress sooner or later of their life. Stress is a pure human response to stress and it manifests itself in signs equivalent to hypertension, exhaustion, nausea and a racing coronary heart.

Having the ability to handle stress is a important talent for leaders. So, with this month being Nationwide Stress Consciousness Month, what ought to leaders learn about managing stress – each for themselves and their groups?

1. Share the wrestle

“Many leaders assume that if they are saying phrases like ‘stress’, ‘burnout’ or ‘psychological well being’, they’ll create an issue that wasn’t there, and everybody will take time without work and really feel like they don’t must work exhausting,” says Petra Velzeboer, a psychotherapist, coach and writer of Start With You: Make investments In Your Psychological Effectively-being and Satisfaction at Work. “In actual fact, the other is true.”

Velzeboer says that when we’ve got a shared language in regards to the wrestle concerned with stress, we open up the trail to catch challenges once they’re small and help one another to maintain long-term success. “I prefer to ask my group questions equivalent to what are the largest challenges they’re going through both personally or professionally?” she explains. “However, in fact, I’ve to first give permission to others to reply in a approach that feels proper for them.”

It is also necessary that leaders speak in regards to the sorts of stressors each they and their group are going through, whether or not it’s the kind of wholesome stress that’s serving to them to thrive or whether or not it’s debilitating and making them freeze? “Generally we don’t have time for setting this up earlier than a selected deadline, through which case it’s actually helpful to debrief after,” Velzeboer suggests.

Many unfavourable stressors in groups germinate due to assumptions and an absence of readability. “Listening to others doesn’t imply we’ve got to motion every part, however a great chief is obvious about what’s potential and what isn’t,” says Velzeboer.“Crucially, they lead by instance by managing their very own stress in wholesome and clear methods – apologizing when reacting reasonably than responding and treating the group as a spot the place we are able to be taught collectively and evolve our working practices for the long run.”

2. Handle your nervous system

The nervous system in our our bodies initiates our “combat or flight” response to emphasize. Because of this, it is smart that we must always concentrate on managing our nervous system to alleviate stress in work environments.

A very efficient group approach is synchronized vagal respiration, in response to Jennifer Mann, co-author of The Secret Language of the Physique and co-founder of nervous system therapeutic platform Somia. This entails inhaling by means of the nostril for 4 counts and exhaling for eight counts by means of the mouth, for 3 to 10 minutes. The approach faucets into the science of the vagus nerve, which is essential for regulating our stress and rest responses.

“It permits people and teams to transition from the ‘combat or flight’ sympathetic state to a ‘relaxation and digest’ parasympathetic state, cultivating restoration,” says Mann.

This collective apply not solely eases stress momentarily, it additionally boosts particular person resilience and group cohesion. “The rhythm in synchronized respiration promotes a non-verbal cue for security and belonging, important for group stress aid,” says Mann. “As leaders implement this apply into common group conferences or as a day by day ritual, they promote an setting the place success and well being are intertwined with the group’s potential to adapt to emphasize positively and innovatively.”

3. Don’t drink alcohol as a strategy to unwind

“Main a group, or managing a enterprise, requires the power to navigate by means of extremely annoying conditions with readability and focus,” says Dominic McGregor, founding father of enterprise capital agency Fearless Adventures and writer of I’m By no means Consuming Once more: The right way to Cease Consuming So A lot and Change Your Relationship with Alcohol.

Alcohol consumption not solely serves as a distraction but additionally drains worthwhile sources, equivalent to time and vitality that could possibly be higher invested in addressing challenges and driving progress.

“Sobriety is the last word life hack for leaders when dealing with annoying environments,” says McGregor. “By abstaining from alcohol, leaders keep a transparent thoughts and are higher geared up to make sound choices underneath stress. What’s extra, leaders who chorus from selling an alcoholic tradition inside their group set a optimistic instance for his or her group to observe, fostering a more healthy and extra productive work setting.”

4. Create a tradition of efficient stress administration

“Stress could be contagious and detrimental if there may be an excessive amount of of it,” says Anna Eliatamby, director of neighborhood curiosity firm Wholesome Management and co-author of Therapeutic-Self Look after Leaders and their Groups. “To keep away from this, leaders should have a look at their affect and create a tradition for efficient stress administration.”

So, how can leaders create an open tradition through which individuals can talk about managing stress? Eliatamby’s recommendation is to say that you simply wish to talk about create a tradition through which stress is called, addressed and dropped at a degree the place it’s useful. Ask what’s optimistic and what causes stress at work? Triggers might embrace points at dwelling, the character of the work setting itself (equivalent to too many duties or a poisonous tradition), private well being and even main societal points equivalent to local weather change. What’s of their management, what can they affect and what do they should settle for?

It’s also necessary to discover how the group responds to emphasize. For instance, does it deal with stress or ignore it? And the way does it deal with stress? For instance, are there any useful or unhelpful habits to pay attention to?

“Reply these questions your self,” says Eliatamby. “Share your solutions as you need. Additionally, ask for suggestions in your management type and the way you handle stress. What recommendation would your group provide you with?”

When you’ve accomplished this train, you possibly can construct and enact a sequence of interventions with workers, together with private and group self-care plans.

5. Know that stress isn’t inevitable

“Exposing the parable that stress is an inevitable a part of life is essential for efficient management and serving to others to thrive,” says Chantal Burns, writer of Bulletproof: Be Fearless and Resilient – it doesn’t matter what. “Once we misunderstand how stress works, it creates pointless struggling.”

Burns has undertaken analysis displaying that when individuals acknowledge that emotions of stress are a product of their perceptions (inner thought processes), they expertise much less nervousness and are calmer and have higher readability in high-pressure conditions. Blaming exterior elements (equivalent to different individuals, the previous or the long run) for our stress, nervousness or overwhelm solely perpetuates a way of helplessness and hinders our capability to thrive. That is particularly the case when we’ve got no direct affect or management over these elements.

“To reduce pointless stress and enhance decision-making and readability of thoughts, concentrate on serving to your groups to grasp the true nature of stress,” says Burns. “Do a listing of the psychological and environmental noise within the office – are you incentivizing over-achievers? Do you create area for reflection? Do you mannequin a wholesome work-life steadiness?”

“Stress doesn’t exist as a separate entity ‘on the market’ on the earth,” concludes Burns. “Thought and feeling are two sides of the identical coin. No matter we expect, we’ll expertise as a sense or sensation in our thoughts and physique. Embracing this fact fosters resilience, enabling leaders to operate successfully regardless of fluctuating emotional states.”

Se espera que miles de personas en el área de Washington DC salgan el lunes para presenciar el último eclipse photo voltaic de una generación.

El eclipse photo voltaic whole que se desplazará a través de los Estados Unidos será el último seen sobre los Estados Unidos continentales durante otros 20 años. Si bien DC, Maryland y Virginia no están en el camino de la totalidad, aún valdrá la pena ponerse las gafas para eclipse, ya que la luna bloquea hasta el 90% del sol.

Aquí hay cuatro cosas esenciales que debe saber:

• Utilizando las gafas, mira hacia arriba entre las 2 y las 4 p. m. Se espera un eclipse máximo alrededor de las 3:20 p. m.
• Dado que DC no se encuentra en el camino de la totalidad, debes usar gafas de eclipse para ver el sol de forma segura en cualquier punto
• Algunas nubes de alto nivel podrían obstaculizar tu visión del eclipse en ocasiones, pero es possible que tengas mucho tiempo para una buena vista, según La Autoridad en el Tiempo.
• Sintoniza Telemundo a partir de las 2 p.m. para una cobertura especial. A las 5 p.m., Telemundo 44 tendrá cobertura completa del eclipse con el meteorólogo Joseph Martínez en vivo desde el Nationwide Mall.

Durante el eclipse, la Luna proyectará su sombra sobre partes de América del Norte cuando se interponga entre la Tierra y el Sol, expresó Gina DiBraccio, subdirectora de heliofísica del Centro de Vuelos Espaciales Goddard de la NASA.

“Si tienes la oportunidad de ver esto, ya sea el eclipse whole o parcial en el área de DC, deberías hacerlo porque es un tipo especial de evento en la vida”, afirmó DiBraccio.

A medida que las trayectorias del sol y la luna se alineen parcialmente alrededor de DC, el cielo se oscurecerá, los vientos pueden cambiar y se espera que las temperaturas bajen ligeramente. Se pronostica que el lunes será seco con máximas de 60 grados y una cobertura de nubes del 40-50%, según La Autoridad en el Tiempo.

Telemundo 44 conversó con astrólogos que compartieron sus predicciones de cara al eclipse photo voltaic del lunes 8 de abril. Entérate de qué se trata. 

La luna está relativamente cerca de la Tierra en este momento, lo que significa que el eclipse del lunes tendrá un período de totalidad más largo que el eclipse de 2017, detalló el Dr. Teasel Muir-Concord del Museo Nacional del Aire y el Espacio.

“Los eclipses solares en common son bastante especiales”, dijo Muir-Concord. “En este en specific, el sol está en su máximo photo voltaic. Entonces, está muy, muy activo en este momento. El de 2017, en realidad estaba en su mínimo photo voltaic. Así que podría haber cosas interesantes que ver”.

El máximo photo voltaic significa que es más possible que los espectadores de eclipses vean corrientes especiales de luz y protuberancias, “que aparecen como rizos o bucles de shade rosa brillante que salen del Sol”, según la NASA.

Las multitudes que se reunieran para observar el eclipse desde el Nationwide Mall o el Centro de Visitantes Goddard de la NASA el lunes participarían en una tradición humana que es anterior a la historia escrita, aunque los registros de eclipses se remontan a far de años atrás.

Según un artículo de la NASA, los petroglifos encontrados en el condado de Meath, Irlanda, pueden ser nuestros primeros registros de un eclipse; se remontan al 3340 antes de Cristo. Los escribas de Anyang, China, escribieron en conchas y huesos que “el sol ha sido devorado” alrededor del año 1200 a.C. Mucho más tarde, el eclipse de 1918 ayudó a confirmar la teoría de la relatividad de Albert Einstein, lanzando al físico a la fama, según el Servicio de Parques Nacionales.

Lea a continuación para saber cuándo será el eclipse photo voltaic y dónde verlo en D.C.

¿A qué hora es el eclipse en DC, Maryland y Virginia?

El eclipse photo voltaic será el lunes 8 de abril. Podrás verlo en el área de DC desde las 2 p.m. a 4:30 p. m. Se espera un eclipse máximo alrededor de las 3:20 p.m., pero el momento exacto depende de su ubicación.

La luna comenzará a moverse frente al sol alrededor de las 2 p. m., cubriendo lentamente más sol hasta aproximadamente las 3:20 p. m. Luego se alejará del sol hasta aproximadamente las 4:30 p. m., según el Membership de Astronomía del Norte de Virginia (NOVAC, en inglés).

¿Cuál es la trayectoria del eclipse?

Partes de México verán el eclipse primero. El camino hacia la totalidad en Estados Unidos se extiende a lo largo de 13 estados, desde Texas hasta Maine.

Se espera que algunas personas presencien el eclipse desde vuelos especiales. Empresas de todo el país planean ofrecer ofertas especiales y recuerdos creativos, como cerveza con temática del eclipse.

¿Está el área de DC en el camino de la totalidad?

No, el área de DC no verá un eclipse photo voltaic whole. Según NOVAC, la luna cubrirá aproximadamente el 90% del ancho del sol en el área de DC durante el eclipse photo voltaic.

En Greenbelt, Maryland, la luna bloqueará aproximadamente el 86% de la luz del sol, según el Centro de Visitantes Goddard de la NASA. Oscurecerá el 87% del sol en su máximo en School Park, explicó el Departamento de Astronomía de la Universidad de Maryland.

En Rosslyn, Virginia, la luna bloqueará aproximadamente el 75% del sol, dijo el Rosslyn BID.

La visibilidad del eclipse depende de las condiciones del tiempo; un día nublado oscurecería la vista.

Qué saber sobre las gafas de eclipse

¡No sigas el ejemplo del expresidente Donald Trump! Asegúrese de proteger sus ojos del sol durante las fases de un eclipse photo voltaic.

Para una visualización segura, la NASA recomienda el uso de gafas de eclipse o visores solares portátiles. Es importante tener en cuenta que las gafas de sol normales no son lo suficientemente oscuras para filtrar la luz brillante de forma segura.

Los eclipses se pueden ver brevemente sin protección cuando la luna bloquea completamente el sol. Sin embargo, dado que DC no se encuentra en el camino de la totalidad, se recomienda usar protección para los ojos durante todo el eclipse.

Los eclipses solares totales rara vez son visibles en una gran franja de Estados Unidos.

El próximo eclipse photo voltaic whole que se extenderá por los Estados Unidos continentales ocurrirá el 12 de agosto de 2045, siguiendo un camino desde el norte de California hasta Florida, según la NASA (aunque Alaska verá uno en 2033 y aparecerá un eclipse whole. Montana y Dakota del Norte en 2044, informa Forbes).
