Thousands gather to see annular eclipse
Picture

Bulgarian children look at the annular eclipse of the sun through a telescope in the Black Sea port of Varna yesterday. In an annular eclipse the moon moves between the sun and earth but due to a tiny difference in distance for celestial mechanics, it does not completely cover the solar face as it happens in a total eclipse.
