calera Night 'on the island from the ocean volcanic 13:30:54 (local) for five minutes and 20 seconds : five long minutes of' sun black 'on the 160 km square of Rapa Nui, 3600 km away from the coasts of Chile and 4,000 from Tahiti.
The event has long been mobilized not only 'the eclipse hunters' and scientists, but also travel agents, as in many, and all over the world, will want to spend those five minutes in dim light company of the enigmatic moai, when - say in their own language with around 4,900 inhabitants - the 'mahina' (moon) s'interporra 'between the earth and the' ra'a '(sun).
In order to limit the invasion of tourists, the authorities 'of the island - which has ten hotels and 1,800 beds - have already' made it known that on the day of the eclipse will not admit piu' di tremila presenze . Ed e' previsto d'altra parte il rafforzamento sia delle guardie dei siti archeologici sia dei controlli antidroga all'aeroporto locale.
Quello dell'11 luglio sara', in altre parole, una sorta di combinazione perfetta tra un fenomeno astronomico sempre suggestivo e una terra dalla cultura ancestrale e del tutto particolare.
Gli astri, ricordano gli astronomi cileni, hanno influito profondamente nella cultura 'rapa nui': ne sono esempio proprio i noti moai, visto che alcuni degli 'ahus' (le piattaforme dove sono posati i colossi di pietra) sono stati costruiti tenendo conto delle posizioni del sole e della luna.
La traiettoria the shadow will cover the July 11 'will cover the southern part of the Pacific' about 15,000 kilometers, from southern New Zealand, to the Cook Islands, French Polynesia and Easter, and finally in Chile but only partially. Even if state in Santiago, in areas where the phenomenon will go 'to go out (at the end' of the country, from portions of the Strait of Magellan, and in parts of Patagonia, Argentina) the eclipse will be 'total. Just as Easter Island.
