FIRST TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE OF 2019

THIS IS THE FIRST TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE OF 2019

Total Solar Eclipse 2019 is all set to take place on July 2 (Tuesday). 

It's been nearly two years since the "Great American Eclipse". Millions crammed into a 70-mile (110-kilometer) wide path of totality stretching from coast to coast, where the Moon blotted out the Sun to usher in a spontaneous nightfall. It was a planetary cavalcade unlike anything most had seen.


Total Solar Eclipse 2019 is all set to take place on July 2 (Tuesday). A solar eclipse is something which occurs when the moon is between the sun and the earth. In a total eclipse, the disk of the sun is fully concealed by the moon whereas, in partial eclipse, only a certain part of the sun is obscured.


This Tuesday, Earth will again find itself the backdrop of the Moon's shadow, but this time, basking in the lunar umbra won't be so easy. Though the path of totality spans 6,000 miles (9,600 kilometres), most of it is over the remote South Pacific.


This year, the coming solar eclipse will be the only Surya Grahan that one can witness. It will probably last for four minutes and 33 seconds which is longer than the one happened in August 2017 that lasted for around two minutes and 40 seconds.


However, the solar eclipse will not be visible in India because it is going to take place during the night. The partial eclipse will start around 10:25 pm (Indian Standard Time). So don't be disheartened if you miss the eclipse this year, as one is likely to take place in December next year.


Only a narrow zone in Chile and Argentina will witness totality before sunset - weather permitting.

ALL ABOUT I-SIMS: THE FUTURE OF SIMS

i-SIMS ARE THE UPCOMING FUTURE WHICH WILL BE BECOME THE NEXT COMMON THING Not like e-Sims, i-Sims are completely a different concept. It will be the future of Sim cards. It will become the next common thing Image Source: www.technologyweuse.com   There was a time when we used ID card size sims. Then there came Mini sims. And soon Micro and Nano sims are become a common thing. As the technology is evolving, new doors are opening. After the e-Sim ( Embedded Sim ) a new technology is coming in the upcoming future which is known as i-Sims ( Integrated Sims ). So how does this i-Sim works and how it can affects the upcoming future? Lets have a look. Future of i-Sims The chipset manufacture company ARM  is planning to integrate the sim in the  SoC (System On Chip) section with the processor, GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) and the other important components . ARM confirms that the size of i-Sims will be just a fraction of millimeter. The work process of i-...
