In fact, the phenomenon of an erect egg full of magic in the day of the eclipse

There is a theory that an eclipse will make the egg stand up because of the changing gravity. Is that true?

As you know, only on December 26, people in many parts of the world (including Vietnam) witnessed the last astronomical phenomenon of 2019. annular eclipse).

As the last eclipse phenomenon of the decade, it is obvious that this event has caused a lot of attention on the online community. But besides photos of the glowing flames in the sky, netizens in Indonesia and Malaysia spread a much more "magical" thing .

The truth is that there is a theory that the egg could balance itself during an eclipse, but it was rejected long ago. There is no scientific basis for this phenomenon , and you can fully stand the egg at any time of the year, whether or not there is a solar eclipse.

According to Dr. Chong Hon Yew - a retired physicist from the University of Science in Malaysia, he also said that this hypothesis really has no basis.

"You can try building an egg tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, next week, whether or not there is an eclipse. It's very easy," said Chong. "But this is a pretty cool game that can help kids become more passionate about science."

Hakeem Maarof - man "1 armpit 2 children" in Malaysia shared the same view after manually returning to the scene of the children laying eggs on the sidewalk. "It's like an experiment for my kids to try."
