Next 21 June 2020, the Sun will offer an amazing annular eclipse, well visible from Africa and Asia. As in the past, the Virtual Telescope Project will partner with some great astro-imagers there to bring to you the stunning beauty of such a unique event. Yes, it will be somewhat unique: the 21 June Solar Eclipse will happen soon after the Solstice, making the event even more fascinating.
We are putting together an international team, thanks to very generous people willing to share their views with the world: our observers will be in Africa and Asia, from where the eclipse will be visible at its best.
So far, the Solstice Annular Solar Eclipse team is composed as below:
- Ahmed Saad, Amateur Astronomer, Karachi, Pakistan;
- Taqwa Observatory, Bela District, Pakistan;
- Space India, India;
- Talha Moon Zia, National Center in Big Data & Cloud Computing-NEDUET, Sukkur, Pakistan;
