Watch annular solar eclipse live on October 2

space.com

On October 2, 2024, an annular solar eclipse will create a "ring of fire" effect as the moon covers about 93% of the sun. This event will be visible along a path across the Pacific Ocean, southern Chile, and southern Argentina. For those not in the path of annularity, a livestream will be available starting at 2:45 p.m. EDT on Timeanddate.com’s YouTube channel. The livestream will feature views of the eclipse and updates from locations experiencing the event. People outside the path will see a partial solar eclipse, where the moon appears to take a "bite" out of the sun. Safety precautions, such as using solar eclipse glasses, are essential for viewing the eclipse directly.
