About this eclipse

An annular solar eclipse, when the Moon is slightly too far from Earth to cover the Sun entirely, leaving a brilliant ring of sunlight — the 'ring of fire'.

Exactly what you'll see depends heavily on where you are. Set your location to get the local start, maximum and end times and how much of the Sun is covered from your spot.

Never look at the Sun directly — always use certified solar-eclipse glasses or a safe projection method.
