YOGYAKARTA This year, a natural phenomenon in the form of an eclipse of the Hybrid Sun will occur in the Indonesian sky. Related to this, the Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) has released a schedule for the forecast for the 2023 hybrid solar eclipse. Then what is the Hybrid Sun eclipse?
In general, the eclipse of the Sun is a natural phenomenon that occurs when the shadow of the moon hits the earth, namely when sunlight usually falls to the surface of the earth is actually hindered by the shadow of the moon.
While the Hibride Sun eclipse, quoted from the National Institute of Aeronautics and Space (LAPAN) website, is a natural phenomenon that resembles a total solar eclipse and a ring sun whose events occur sequentially.
On the BMKG website, it is explained that the eclipse of the Hybrid Sun occurs when the Sun, Moon, and Earth are in one straight line so that in certain places an event will occur in the form of a Moon plate that can be seen from Earth, it will be smaller than the disk of the Sun, while in other places, an event occurs in the form of a Moon disk that is observed from Earth, the size of which is the same as the disk of the Sun.
This incident caused the appearance of the Sun to be like a ring in a certain place when the eclipse was at its peak, namely in the form of a dark circle in the middle of the sun and a bright circle on its edge. Then in another place the Sun seems covered by the moon.
It can be said that during the Hybrid Sun eclipse there are two visual views that will occur in certain places, namely the Cincin Sun Eclipse and the Total Sun Eclipse.
On the official website of the BMKG, in 2023 it is estimated that there will be four eclipses, one of which is the Hybrid Sun Eclipse. The schedule for the Hybrid Sun Eclipse is April 20, 2023 and can be observed from Indonesia. This estimate coincides with the end of Ramadan 1444 H or Eid Al-Fitr 2023.
The phenomenon of this type of eclipse is often called rare and rarely occurs when compared to other solar eclipses. In the 100 years period, this natural phenomenon does not necessarily occur twice. In addition, the duration of this eclipse is also very short, which is only about two minutes in the eclipse zone and cannot be witnessed in all regions.
The eclipse of the Hybrid Sun will bring little change to the earth. These changes are not very influential but quite pronounced. The impact of the Hybrid Sun Eclipse in general is as follows.
Like an eclipse in general, the eclipse of the Hybrid Sun will have an impact on temporary dark weather. The sky, which was originally sunny, could turn dark like at night. However, this condition occurs temporarily and not all regions will experience this phenomenon.
There will be a slight decrease in temperature when this natural phenomenon occurs. The decline itself is not too extreme, which is approximately 4-5 degrees Celsius.
This condition is common during an eclipse of the Sun which has an impact on tides. Because of this condition, people are not advised to do activities on the coastline to avoid big waves.
Sun eclipses usually cause behavioral changes in animals, especially nocturnal animals or animals that are active at night. During dark weather, nocturnal animals such as birds will wake up and cause temporary noise.
