When does Solar Eclipse occur?
Solar eclipse occurs when the Moon comes between the Sun and the Earth and partially or fully blocks the Sun's light in some areas and casts a shadow on the Earth. A total solar eclipse occurs when the Sun, Moon, and Earth are in a direct line.
A total solar eclipse appears when the Moon passes between the Earth and the sun. The Sun is approximately four hundred times larger than the Moon and also 400 times further away from the Moon. This makes it look like both the Sun and Moon are similar in disk size causing the eclipse. This total solar eclipse comes two weeks after the partial lunar eclipse of November 19.

First Solar Eclipse 2021The first solar eclipse of 2021 occurred on June 10, 2021. The annular solar eclipse was a rare sight as the sun was completely covered by the Moon’s shadow and light emitted from around it gave a ‘Ring of Fire’ sort of an appearance. The 'ring of fire' was partially visible from some parts of India such as Arunachal Pradesh and Ladakh. |
