Why does garlic make your breath smell. Garlic and other members of the allium plant family (onions, shallots, leeks) produce cysteine sulfoxide and this gives them their distinct odor and taste. These sulfuric compounds are very similar to the compounds that are produced by the anaerobic bacteria that cause bad breath.
Sun-moon configurations that produce a total (A), annular (B), and partial (C) solar eclipse. A total eclipse occurs when the observer is within the umbra, an annular eclipse when the observer is within the antumbra, and a partial eclipse when the observer is within the penumbra. During a lunar eclipse only the umbra and penumbra are applicable.
There are generally two solar eclipses and two lunar eclipses each year. Sometimes, we get two partial eclipses a month apart in place of one total eclipse. For example, in 2011 there will be four partial solar eclipses, and no total eclipses. The maximum possible number of eclipses is five in a year, which is very rare.
