The partial solar eclipse of March 19, 2007 was the first of two partial solar eclipses in 2007. It occurred after an ascending lunar node and reached its highest degree of coverage in the Urals and in sparsely populated areas such as Siberia , Mongolia and western China . Densely populated regions such as eastern China , Korea and India were also recorded, but with significantly lower degrees of coverage. Only in one part of Japan could it be observed how the moon just brushed the upper edge of the solar disk.
