Next Solar Eclipses Until 2020
Some Solar Eclipse Definitions
- Solar Eclipse: Happens when the moon is between the sun and the earth so the Sun is completely or partially blocked.
- Total Solar Eclipse: The Sun is almost completely blocked because the moon completely blocks it. A very faint corona is still visible.
- Annular Solar Eclipse: The Sun appears smaller then the Sun and so there is a very bright ring around the Moon.
- Partial Solar Eclipse: The sun is partially blocked from view by the moon.
- Hybrid Solar Eclipse: A cross between a total and annular eclipses. Depending where you are on the Earth you’ll be able to see either a total or annular eclipse.
- Solar Eclipse Magnitude: The ratio of the visual size of the moon compared to the apparent size of the sun.

Next Solar Eclipse Widget
I’ve been tinkering around with php and decided to make a tool which shows what date the next solar eclipse is on.
Heres an example of what happens when you run the code:
I’m thinking about changing it to be a bit more graphic. Maybe I should just make it a widget that says “Next Eclipse: 69 Days” in an image. You could click it to show more details like in the above example. What do you guys think?
Oh by the way, if you want to put this widget onto your site feel free to. Just use the following code:
<iframe src = "http://www.esolargarden.com/eclipses/eclipses.php" FRAMEBORDER = "0" name = "eclipses" id = "eclipses"></iframe ><a href=”http://www.esolargarden.com”>By e Solar Garden</a>
