* Timings for the beginning & end of partial eclipse and maximum eclipse are accurate to within a few seconds. This calculation uses a Delta T value of 0 seconds.
Timings for other events are approximate—they are included here as a rough guide to features that might be observable. The icons show the position of the Moon against the Sun at each stage.

How to use altitude & direction to find in the sky

This annular solar eclipse is fully visible in Columbus. Observers there can experience the “ring of fire” that is characteristic for this kind of solar eclipse. This is a rare and spectacular event that can only be experienced along a relatively narrow strip on the Earth's surface. The eclipse is also visible in other areas, but the Moon does not move centrally in front of the Sun there and the “ring of fire” is not visible.
