Bengaluru to experience unique no shadows tomorrow: All you need to know

Bengaluru is poised to experience the phenomenon known as Zero Shadow Day on April 24. During this astrophysical event, objects will momentarily cease to cast visible shadows when sunlight strikes them at a precisely 90-degree angle, resulting in shadows being directed vertically downward. This occurrence is the result of the unique interaction between the Sun and the Earth, facilitating a condition where, for a brief period, the rays of sunlight are aligned perpendicularly to the surface at specific geographic locations, rendering objects effectively devoid of shadows.
