A Rare 'Ring of Fire' Solar Eclipse is Coming! Here's How To View It

October 2023 Solar Eclipse: An annular solar eclipse is coming to the United States on 14 October 2023 after more than 11 years. An annular solar eclipse occurs when the Moon covers the center of the Sun, leaving a radiant ring, often referred to as the "ring of fire." The eclipse will sweep all of North America, Central America, and most of South America. Viewers in parts of America will have a chance to see two incredibly rare phenomena: the Ring of Fire and Baily's Beads. In the US, the Ring of Fire will be visible from Southern Oregon, Northeastern California, Northern Nevada, Southern Utah, Southwest Colorado, Northeastern Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas. Two weeks later, a partial lunar eclipse will occur on Saturday, 28 October 2023. It will be visible in Asia, Russia, Africa, Europe, Antarctica, and Oceania. The eclipse will begin at 7:36 p.m. GMT and end at 8:53 p.m. on 28 October. In India, the eclipse will start at 1:06 a.m. on 29 October and end at 2:23 a.m. It will be a short eclipse lasting for about 75 minutes. The maximum eclipse will occur at 01:45 IST, when 12% of the Moon's disk will lie in shadow. Top Space Apps: https://bit.ly/space_apps_2022 Basics of Astrophysics series: https://bit.ly/3xII54M
