Longest Solar Eclipse

The solar eclipse of January 15, 2010 is an annular eclipse of the Sun with a magnitude of 0.9190. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partially obscuring Earth's view of the Sun. An annular solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is smaller than the Sun, causing the sun to look like an annulus (ring), blocking most of the Sun's light. An annular eclipse will appear as partial eclipse over a region thousands of miles wide.

This will be the longest annular solar eclipse of the millennium[1], and the longest until December 23, 3043. with a maximum length of 11 mins and 7.7 seconds. (The solar eclipse of January 4, 1992 was longer, at 11 minutes, 41 seconds, occuring in the middle of the Pacific ocean.)[2]

It will be visible as a partial eclipse in much of Africa, Eastern Europe, Middle East and Asia. It will be seen as annular within a narrow stretch of 300 km (190 mi) width across Central Africa, Maldives, South Kerala (India), South Tamil Nadu (India), North Sri Lanka, parts of Burma and parts of China.

The Truth behind the 2012 world's End.

Do you all remember the Y2K scare? Y2K came and went without much of a whimper because of the planning and analysis of the situation. Dec. 21, 2012, won't be the end of the world as we know. It will, however, be another winter solstice. The Scientist at NASA have anlyzed through thorough studies and unravels some of contrary to the common beliefs.

Many Internet websites say the world will end in December 2012. is there any threats to Earth??
The answer to this question is no, nothing bad will happen to the Earth in 2012. Our planet has been getting along just fine for more than 4 billion years, and credible scientists worldwide know of no threat associated with 2012.

Nibiru and other stories about wayward planets are an Internet hoax. There is no factual basis for these claims. If Nibiru or Planet X were real and headed for an encounter with the Earth in 2012, astronomers would have been tracking it for at least the past decade, and it would be visible by now to the naked eye. Obviously, it does not exist. Eris is real, but it is a dwarf planet similar to Pluto that will remain in the outer solar system; the closest it can come to Earth is about 4 billion miles.
The story started with claims that Nibiru, a supposed planet discovered by the Sumerians, is headed toward Earth. This catastrophe was initially predicted for May 2003, but when nothing happened the doomsday date was moved forward to December 2012. Then these two fables were linked to the end of one of the cycles in the ancient Mayan calendar at the winter solstice in 2012 -- hence the predicted doomsday date of December 21, 2012.There are no planetary alignments in the next few decades, Earth will not cross the galactic plane in 2012, and even if these alignments were to occur, their effects on the Earth would be negligible.
Some thing about the MAYAN CALENDAR.
Just as the calendar you have on your kitchen wall does not cease to exist after December 31, the Mayan calendar does not cease to exist on December 21, 2012. This date is the end of the Mayan long-count period but then -- just as your calendar begins again on January 1 -- another long-count period begins for the Mayan calendar.

For any claims of disaster or dramatic changes in 2012, where is the science? Where is the evidence? There is none, and for all the fictional assertions, whether they are made in books, movies, documentaries or over the Internet, we cannot change that simple fact. There is no credible evidence for any of the assertions made in support of unusual events taking place in December 2012.

Niburu 2012 what may Happen??

In the next few years we may see Earth changes, that may be devastating to all living creatures on the planet. It has been calculated that Planet X (Nibiru) will be returning from its 3600 year orbit around our solar system, which will bring six orbiting satellites with it.This return of Planet X may disrupt our solar system. Jupiter, Neptune, Uranus, Venus, and the Earth all may be affected. Planet X will enter our solar system at the edge and cross orbits with Jupiter. Jupiter could ignite at that time and may become a sun. Nibiru will pass between the Earth on the Sun. This may cause the two suns to be seen by everyone in the world. Everyday people may be able to view the two suns by May of 2011 the latest.

On December 21, 2012 the sun, earth, and milky way may align at the galactic equator. The shortest day of the year, and the end of the Mayan calendar. This only happens after every 25,800 years! For the first time in "recorded history", our entire solar system may move Below the milky way galaxy. These combined cosmic events, may be the end of the world. About 6 billion people of the world may get destroyed through violence in just a few short years if this cosmic catastrophe occurs.
