Today is the first solar eclipse of the year. The view of this solar eclipse in the sky will be like 'Ring of Fire', where the sun hidden behind the moon will be seen like a ring burning in the fire. However, this sight of the 'Ring of Fire' will be visible only to the people living in the Northern Hemisphere as an annular solar eclipse.

When does a solar eclipse happen - This astronomical event occurs in the sky when the Moon comes exactly between the Sun and the Earth. In such a situation, at least some rays of the sun falling on the earth are blocked and for some time there is darkness in a particular area. However, due to the small size of the Moon, it does not completely cover the Sun and its edges appear like rings of fire.

Today we will be able to see an annular solar eclipse. During this, the Moon is far away from Earth in its elliptical orbit. In an annular solar eclipse, the Sun appears like a ring of fire from the outer edges of the Moon. This is called the Ring of Fire, which is going to be the only annular solar eclipse of the year. However, the Ring of Fire will not be visible everywhere in the country and world.

Where it will be seen - Jackie Faherty, an astrophysicist at 'The American Museum of Natural History' in New York City, told Space.com that it is not at all like the Sun usually seen. He said the entire 'Ring of Fire' would be visible from northern latitudes, including parts of Greenland and Canada in addition to the North Pole.

Faherty said that most people will be able to see only a partial form of the solar eclipse, which will be visible only from select parts of North America, Europe and Asia. In India, this view can be seen only from parts of Ladakh and Arunachal Pradesh. Faherty also said that this partial solar eclipse can be unbelievable in appearance. "Thursday's partial solar eclipse will look exactly as if the 'death stars' are in front of the rising sun," he said.

He said, 'In America too, people of South-East, North-East, Mid West and Northern Alaska will be able to see a partial form of the solar eclipse. However, he also warned people not to watch this incident in the sky without the protection of eye glasses.

Apart from most skywatchers in Canada, people will also be able to see this partial solar eclipse from some places in the Caribbean, Europe, Asia and North Africa. You can also visit NASA's Scientific Visualization Studio for more information about solar eclipses in your area.

Let us tell you that recently people saw the sight of 'Super Flower Blood Moon' in the month of May. This was the only total lunar eclipse of the year. Faherty explained that it is not a coincidence that these two eclipses are happening so close to each other.

He told that most people are not aware that these eclipses follow each other. You are going to see solar eclipse back to back after lunar eclipse. This is because the Moon is revolving around the Earth. It is not perfectly spherical, but when it is erect it is in an almost perfectly circular orbit.

Let us tell you that the eclipse on June 10 will take place in Taurus and Mrigashira constellation. This eclipse will take place at 1:42 pm and will end at 6.41 pm. An eclipse is an extremely important astronomical event. During this, scientists from all over the world do various types of research.
