Annular Solar Eclipse – South America

October 2

The eclipse will be visible from a narrow path that passes through the Earth’s southern hemisphere. The elipse will begin in the southern Pacific Ocean and cross over Chile and Argentina before ending in the southern Atlantic Ocean. Observers in these areas can see the “ring of fire” effect created by the moon passing in front of the sun. The eclipse will begin around 10:56 UTC in the southern Pacific Ocean, and the point of the maximum eclipse will occur at 12:25 UTC over Argentina. The eclipse will last approximately three hours and end around 13:52 UTC in the southern Atlantic Ocean.
