Annular solar eclipse creates 'ring of fire' over Easter Island and Patagonia

ndtv.com — October 3, 2024 at 10:00 AM UTC

An annular solar eclipse, known as the "ring of fire," occurred on Wednesday, visible from Easter Island and a small area in southern Chile and Argentina. This type of eclipse happens when the moon is too far from Earth to completely cover the sun. Residents and tourists gathered to witness the event, celebrating with music and special eyewear. An estimated 175,000 people were in the path of the annularity, making it a unique experience for many. The southern half of South America, parts of Antarctica, and Hawaii experienced a partial eclipse. This event marked a rare opportunity for those in the direct path to see the phenomenon.
