Kupatwa kwa Jua kuliko kamili kutokea February 17 mwaka 2026 kuwa tayari kushuhudia

17 February 2026 – Eclipse ya Jua (“Ring of Fire”)

📍 Tarehe hii kutakuwa na kivuli cha kipekee cha jua, kinachoitwa annular solar eclipse – ambapo mwezi unawapo karibu lakini sio kabisa katikati ya jua, hivyo kuonekana kama “kipande cha mwanga” (ring of fire). Hii itatokea juu ya Antarctica, na haiwezi kuonekana sehemu nyingi za dunia bila vifaa maalum. Hii ni tukio kubwa la anga linalofuatiliwa na wataalamu wa sayansi. 

🎯 Kwa wengi duniani, hii ina maana:

Si tukio la kawaida la kila mwaka – ni nadra.

Inavutia wataalamu wa anga na wachunguzi wa eclipse.

Imetajwa pia katika orodha ya NASA ya matukio makuu ya anga kwa mwaka 2026. 

🌕 3 March 2026 – Eclipse ya Mwezi (“Blood Moon”)

📍 Tarehe hii, kulingana na taarifa za kisayansi, kutakuwa na total lunar eclipse – pia inajulikana kama “Blood Moon” maana mwezi utaonekana kuwa nyekundu kutokana na jinsi mwangaza wa dunia unavyojaribu kupitia anga. Hii itakuwa tukio la anga ambalo linaonekana vizuri kwa watu wengi wanaoangalia anga duniani. 

🎯 Ukweli muhimu:

Luna eclipse kama hii hutokea wakati dunia iko kati ya jua na mwezi.

Mwezi huwa “nyekundu” kwa muda wakati wa tukio hilo – na mara nyingi hutazamwa na watu wengi duniani.
