Annular solar eclipse on October 2 will be less visible for many viewers

gizmodo.com

An annular solar eclipse will occur on October 2, 2024, but it will be less impressive than previous eclipses. The Moon will block only a small portion of the Sun, creating a "ring of fire" effect. This eclipse will mainly be visible in parts of Argentina and Chile, including Easter Island. A partial eclipse will be seen in western Mexico and some Pacific Islands, but it will not be visible in the continental U.S. The annular eclipse will start at 4:50 p.m. Coordinated Universal Time. Safety precautions, such as using proper eclipse glasses, are necessary to protect eyes from damage.
