Spectators enjoy annular solar eclipse in South America

news.yahoo.com — October 2, 2024 at 10:00 PM UTC

On Wednesday, an annular solar eclipse created a "ring of fire" effect visible in parts of South America, including Rapa Nui, Argentina, and Chile. This type of eclipse occurs when the moon is too far from Earth to completely block the sun. The peak of the eclipse happened at 2:45 p.m. ET and lasted just over seven minutes. Unlike total solar eclipses, there is no totality phase, meaning the sun is never fully obscured. Observers were advised to wear proper eye protection at all times during the event. NASA emphasized that looking directly at the eclipse without protection is unsafe.
