為什麼日蝕會從西向東移動？ (Why Do Eclipses Travel WEST to EAST?)
- The surface at the equator is only moving around 1000 miles per hour, and slower the closer you get to the poles.
赤道上的地表只以每小時 1000 英里左右的速度移動，越靠近兩極速度越慢。
- The surface at the equator is only moving around 1,000 mph, and
換句話說，地球表面的直徑約為 8000 英里，是以月亮及其影子穿過地球大約需要 3 個半小時，在兩極附近則更短，而地球上任何一點穿過地球都需要 12 個小時，繞地球轉半圈則需要半天時間。

- Even though there is more ice readily available at the poles, this location is preferred, as it's on a huge low-elevation plain and will be within 40 degrees of the planet's equator, so it will have a relatively good temperature for Mars and still have abundant amounts of surface ice and potential buried glaciers that could be tapped into.
雖然極地有更多現成的冰，但這裡更受青睞，因為它位於一個巨大的低窪平原上，而且距離火星赤道 40 度以內，所以火星的溫度相對較好，而且仍有豐富的地表冰和潛在的地下冰川可供開採。

哪個行星的日蝕最精彩？ (Which Planet Has the Best Eclipse?)
- Here's what I missed – if an eclipse happens at sunrise or sunset, or near the poles, then the moon causing it will be farther away and thus appear smaller than if it causes an eclipse at noon, or on the equator.
我漏掉的是--如果日食發生在日出或日落時分，或者在兩極附近，那麼引起日食的月球會離得更遠，是以看起來比在正午或赤道上引起日食的月球要小。

佩爾蒂塔衛星在天王星上的日全食最棒，除了太陽太小之外，這應該是 A 級，所以是 B 級。
