Annular solar eclipse on 10 June will show a ‘ring of fire’
Recommended for Preparatory Grades
Are you ready to see this year’s first solar eclipse? It will happen on 10 June. A solar eclipse (or surya grahan) happens when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun. When this happens, the Moon blocks the light of the Sun.
The solar eclipse on 10 June is called an annular solar eclipse. In this, the Moon blocks the centre of the Sun, leaving a ‘ring of fire’ in the sky. This solar eclipse will cover the Sun by 97%.
When and where can you see it in India? The event will start at 1:42 PM (IST). It will be visible for only a few minutes. You can see the event in India. But you can see it only in a few states in the eastern parts of India like Arunachal Pradesh. The annular solar eclipse will be visible from parts of Russia, Canada, Greenland and the North Pole.
