An eclipse is when one body is between the Earth and another, obscuring it from view.  There are different kinds,  A solar eclipse is when the moon blocks the sun.  A lunar eclipse is when the Earth blocks the sun's light from reaching the moon, causing our shadow to pass over it.

There are special glasses similar in style to 3-D glasses that are specially made to view eclipses. The glasses can be found cheaply on the internet or can be purchased through science supply catalogues. Again welders glasses, the dark type also allow you to look at the eclipse. There are also several indirect ways to look at an eclipse. One can make a periscope type looking device out of a cardboard box that is open at the top and L-shaped on the bottom. This shows the sun as a dot with the shadow slowly enveloping it. I bet directions for this type of set up is available through science education sites or through Discovery.com

The lunar plane (the imaginary circle around the earth in which the moon revolves) is not in line with earth's view of the sun, hence solar eclipses, especially total solar eclipses, are rare events.\n\nBoth types of eclipses have comparative frequencies, but you're more likely to be able to see a lunar eclipse. The reason is, the earth's shadow is so much larger than the moon, and amost anyone on the night side of the earth will be able to see the lunar eclipse.\n\nCompare this to the shadow of the moon, which is really small when it falls on the earth, so only a limited number of people in a small area can see it.

Parallax.  By coincidence, the Sun is about 400 times as far away as the Moon and also 400 times the diameter, so it appears about the same size.  If I see a total solar eclipse here in NZ, then anywhere else in the world, the Moon won't be directly in front of the Sun.  For instance, the 1999 total eclipse of the Sun started in Nova Scotia.  Before that, it was only visible from space.   The path of totality crossed the Atlantic, Europe, Turkey, the Middle East, Iran, India and then left the surface of the Earth again.

I guess you are talking about Eclipse.org?\nThe Eclipse project is a Java Application which has its source-code open to everyone, if you're able to develop a Java-based application you're able to develop a plug-in too.\nWe could help you better if you tell us more information about the legacy server and tech's.

A total solar eclipse will just graze the island on June 13, 2132.  Needless to say, don't hold your breath.  :(\n\nHere's a great page with lots of eclipse data:\n\nhttp://sunearth.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclipse/solar.html

A solar eclipse occurs when another planet (or the Moon) passes between the the Earth and the Sun and blocks the light from reaching the Earth.

A solar eclipse occurs when the moon moves between the earth and the sun.  From our perspective, this looks like the moon is covering up the sun.\n\nA lunar eclipse occurs when the earth moves between the moon and the sun.  The earth's shadow covers the moon and the moon appears to grow dark

The Earth is between the moon and the Sun.  \n\nSomeone standing on the moon would see a solar eclipse.  \n\nSolar eclipse  Sun   Moon   Earth\n\nLunar eclipse  Sun   Earth  Moon

There are two types of eclipses. Solar and lunar. A solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes between the Earth and the sun.  A lunar eclipse is when the Earth casts it's shadow on the moon, basically the Earth passes between the sun and the moon.

The next Total Solar eclipse visible in Canada is August 1, 2008 in Nunavut. \n\nYour best bet would be to book a cruise since much of the eclipse is over water.\n\nHere are two links to travel groups planning to cruise this eclipse.

No. The Earth is too small from the vantage point of other planets and too big from the Moon to cause an eclipse.
