This solar eclipse is special not only because it will occur in a place that I actually know and live in, but because it will be the longest total solar eclipse that will occur in the 21st century. It will last up to 6 minutes and 39 seconds and guess where I will be to see it? On the other side of the planet! Yeah trust my luck to be in the right place at the right time &#8230; nothing exciting happens in this backwater that calls itself Ningbo for decades and then the one time that something exciting, monumental and in fact historic does happen &#8230; I&#8217;m not around to see it!
