On October 14, 2023, a rare annular solar eclipse will be visible in North, Central, and South America. Millions of people in the Western Hemisphere will have the opportunity to witness this amazing event.

An annular solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes in front of the Sun, but the Moon is not quite large enough to completely block out the Sun's disk. This creates a thin ring of the Sun's disk visible around the Moon.

It is important to never look directly at the Sun, even during an annular eclipse. The Sun's rays can cause permanent damage to your eyes. The only safe way to view an annular solar eclipse is with special solar viewing glasses or a solar filter.

Learn more about annular solar eclipses and safety procedures at the NASA website. The website also has a map of the path of the eclipse, so you can see if it will be visible in your area. #annularsolareclipse, #solareclipse2023,
