Partial Eclipse

OK so I'm no science enthusiast, but one of the things i have been counting down to for about a month now is the Partial Eclipse on 20th March from around 08:00-10:45

For anyone who doesn't know what an Eclipse is....

Partial solar eclipses happen when the Moon comes between the Sun and the Earth, but they don't align in a perfectly straight line. Because of this, the Moon only partially covers the Sun's disc.



I am yet to see one because they only come every 26 years or so and I am not that old! Where I live is surrounded by countryside so I should be able to get a good view of it.
