Casting two billion people <\/strong>into total or partial darkness in China and India<\/strong>, the world’s two most populous countries, this will have been the most witnessed eclipse in history.<\/p>\n

The eclipse<\/strong> – caused when the moon moves directly between the sun and the earth, covering it completely to cast a shadow on earth – lasted almost 4 minutes in India. In some parts of Asia it lasted as long as 6 minutes and 39 seconds.<\/p>\n
