Annular Eclipse 2023 FAQs

When is the annular eclipse?

The annular eclipse is set to occur on October 14, 2023. Visit this map to see what time it will be passing through each particular area.

What is an annular eclipse?

An annular eclipse happens when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, but it doesn't completely cover the Sun's disk. As a result, a ring-like or "ring of fire" effect is visible, where the Sun's edges remain visible around the Moon.

What’s the difference between an annular eclipse and a total eclipse?

The primary difference between an annular eclipse and a total eclipse lies in the level of coverage of the Sun by the Moon. In a total eclipse, the Moon completely covers the Sun, creating a darkened daytime sky and revealing the Sun's corona. In an annular eclipse, the Moon covers the central part of the Sun, leaving a ring-like appearance around the Moon's silhouette.

How often do annular eclipses happen?

Annular eclipses are relatively rare compared to other types of solar eclipses. On average, they occur about 2 to 4 times per year, but their visibility depends on geographic location and the path of the eclipse.

Which states are in the path?

States that fall within the path for the October 14, 2023 annular eclipse include Oregon, Nevada, Utah, New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, Wyoming, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, and parts of Texas. These regions will witness the "ring of fire" effect during the eclipse.

How will I know when the eclipse will happen?

You can find accurate information about the timing of the eclipse for your specific location through various sources, such as reputable astronomy websites, apps, and official space agencies. Make sure to use reliable sources to get the most up-to-date and accurate information.

Do I need eye protection for the annular eclipse?

Yes, you should use proper eye protection when observing any phase of the eclipse. Even during the annular phase, when the Sun is partially covered, it's still dangerously bright and can harm your eyes if you look directly at it. Use certified solar viewing glasses or other safe viewing methods to protect your eyes during the eclipse.
