US EditionGet ready for a partial solar eclipse across Europe and parts of North America and Africa
- On a Saturday in March 2025, a partial solar eclipse will be visible across Europe, western Africa, eastern North America, and northern Asia, offering a spectacle where the moon appears to take bites out of the sun.
- Partial solar eclipses occur when the moon passes between the sun and Earth, but only partly blocks the sun, creating a crescent shape without total darkness.
- The sun will appear to shrink the most for viewers in the northeastern United States, Greenland, and eastern Canada, while the spectacle is slotted during sunrise for most of the Americas and late morning for western Europe and Africa.
- Juan Carlos Muoz-Mateos from the European Southern Observatory notes that the eclipse might make the day feel like a particularly cloudy one, while Auriane Egal from the Planetarium in Montreal describes eclipses as a game of light and shadow played by the sun, moon, and Earth.
- Following a total lunar eclipse in mid-March, another total lunar eclipse and partial solar eclipse are expected in September, as NASA estimates that solar and lunar eclipses occur four to seven times a year, often in pairs due to the moon's tilted orbit, and experts emphasize the need for proper eye protection during the entire event.
