Answer:
October 22, 2134 B.C.: One of the earliest solar eclipse records appears in the Shu Ching, an ancient Chinese book of documents. The ancient Chinese believed that a solar eclipse was the result of a large dragon eating the Sun. It was the job of two royal astronomers named Hsi and Ho to predict such events so that people could prepare bows and arrows to fend off the dragon. However, they shirked their duties in order to get drunk and were beheaded by the emperor as a result.........
