9 strange things that happen during a solar eclipse

1.The light is changing, shadows sharpen.

2.The West of the sky is darkening first.

3.The temperature is slowly decreasing.

4.Animals behave abnormally. Some are silent, others make alarming sounds. Those who are active during the day are preparing to sleep, and the night wakes up.

5.Running shadows - vibrating streaks strike the earth's surface and the walls of buildings a few minutes before full eclipse. They are good with the naked eye but can not be captured.

6.Bright stars stand out against the background of the darkened sky.

7.Bailey's roundup - uneven flicker on the moon's dark disk - the phenomenon can only last for a few seconds.

8.Solar crown. Plasma in the "sunny" atmosphere with extremely high temperature but low density can be observed with the naked eye during a complete eclipse.

9.Eclipse hunters. There are people who are ready to travel miles to observe a solar eclipse. The lovers of eclipses are called umbrafils (from the latte umbra - shadow). When an eclipse can occur somewhere in the world, the same group of eccentrics who have left all their activities to enjoy the view are often present.
