Wednesday, 22 July
Today was an amazing day. There was a total solar eclipse in
Wuhan! I woke up early because I couldn’t wait to see it! My
friends and I went down to the Yangtze River to find a good
place to watch it. We took cameras, chairs, food and drink, and
special glasses so we could look at it. Lots of people gathered
there to watch too. Slowly, the moon moved in front of the
sun. It looked like someone bit a hole in the sun! It got darker and darker as the moon slowly covered the sun.
At 9:26 a.m. the moon completely covered the sun. The sky went dark. The crowd gasped and cheered. The light of the sun made a ring of light around the moon. I took this photograph then.
The total eclipse lasted for over five minutes! Then it passed and the sky started to get brighter again.
I was really inspired by the eclipse this morning. In the afternoon, I spent hours reading about astronomers, eclipses, and how the planets move in our solar system. The universe is simply amazing! I also watched some videos with famous Chinese astronauts. I want to become an astronaut or astronomer someday too. The sky is the limit!
