Unusual astronomical phenomenon in one day – Univision

On Friday the world will witness three astronomical phenomena. The largest solar eclipse since 1999, the spring equinox and black SuperLuna

“It’s very rare that all three occur on the same day”

The first one will last 2 minutes and 47 seconds and larger display will be in the Faroe Islands between Scotland and Iceland.

This phenomenon much of the planet will one morning a little more darker than usual.

At 09:04 hours in Europe the edge of the moon begin to enter the solar disk causing an eclipse, which will arrive one hour after its beginning to its full entirety.

In Ireland, Scotland and Norway, more northern areas of the planet, you can see the solar eclipse, but in Continental Europe and the UK only be partially observed. Throughout Latin eclipse will not be visible.


We all know how the moon seen from Earth. But how does it look from the other side?

Meanwhile the superluna second since the beginning of the year, you can still be seen in the Americas.

This celestial event occurs when the orbit of the Moon approaches Earth, causing it appear larger size than usual.

The 2015 expected at least six súperlunas .

The other phenomenon will happen is the spring equinox, which refers to the time of year when day and night have the same duration due to the perpendicularity of the Earth with the sun.

On this date many pre-Hispanic ceremonial centers in Mexico receive thousands of visitors who come to witness the archaeoastronomical phenomena that mark the beginning of spring.

Despite the unusual usually this kind of astronomical events, the strangest thing is that all three occur the same day, so scientists are still looking for when this happened last time.
