The moon will travel between the sun and the earth at 8:40 GMT on March 20, obscuring about 98% of the light, making 85% of southern England sunken . Time to admire the best eclipse in Scotland is at 936. In other areas, the moon will cover 30% of the sun's light, RT reported.

Solar eclipses occurred in 2006, 2008 and 2011. However, the super moon phenomenon and eclipse appeared together since 1999 and have to wait until 2090 we have the opportunity to observe it next time. .

" The moon revolves around the earth in elliptical orbits. So the moment these three celestial bodies are lined up is very rare. If the moon's orbit is closer to the earth, the bigger the solar eclipse ," Dr. Edward Bloomer at Radio Royal observers in Greenwich explained.

However, many Britons fear cloudy or rainy weather will make them unable to observe special phenomena. In addition, this event may affect the grid system. The National Center for Power Management said that the UK will lose about 50% of its electricity during the solar eclipse.
