Annular solar eclipse to create ring of fire effect on October 2

sciencealert.com — October 2, 2024 at 03:01 AM UTC

An annular solar eclipse will occur on October 2, 2024, marking the last solar eclipse of the year. Unlike total eclipses, the Moon will not completely cover the Sun, creating a "ring of fire" effect. The eclipse will be visible from parts of South America, including Easter Island, Chile, and Argentina. Maximum annularity will last for 7 minutes and 25 seconds northwest of Easter Island. Observers should take safety precautions when viewing the eclipse, as some sunlight will still be visible. The event also coincides with the Moon's farthest point from Earth this year.
