What to know about the rare phenomenon headed to the US
Americans may be able to catch a rare solar sighting this weekend.
A “ring of fire” eclipse is expected to occur on Saturday in the U.S. as well as in Central and South America, as National Geographic editor and space expert Allie Yang told Fox News Digital in an email.
The annular solar eclipse — a ring of fire — will go through Western states including Oregon, Nevada, Utah, New Mexico, Texas and some parts of California, Idaho, Colorado and Arizona.
Everyone in the contiguous U.S. will get a partial eclipse without the full “ring of fire” effect, according to Yang.
This eclipse occurs when the moon passes in front of the sun and appears slightly smaller, creating a “sliver of sun in the shape of a ring” for those who are in the right place at the right time, the expert said.
