Live Broadcast of the Total Solar Eclipse 2009 by Media i Corporation
Live Broadcast of the Total Solar Eclipse 2009 |
About the Live Broadcast
Due to the bad weather condition in Akusekijima, Kagoshima where we send a staff member, we switched to the images from Okinawa where we can watch a partial solar eclilpse during the live broadcast. We are sorry that we couldn't provide the total solar eclipse images. However it was inpressive that we could see the sun like a crescent moon.
We will be able to watch the next total solar eclipse in Japan in September 2035. I can't imagine what kind of technology will be used in that time, I hope I can continue to carry out live broadcast projects as well.
