Folks across Newfoundland and Labrador will have a chance to witness the latest celestial event on Thursday morning—as long as the skies are clear.
The northern hemisphere will be treated to an annular solar eclipse shortly after sunrise, as the moon crosses the path between the Earth and the sun.
NASA says some parts of Canada, Greenland, and northern Russia will be fortunate enough to experience what looks like a “ring of fire” around the moon during the eclipse. But for those along the east coast of Canada, a partial eclipse is what’s in the cards.
The eclipse is expected to take place just after sunrise at around 7:05 a.m. Newfoundland Time.
NASA says a clear view of the horizon will be needed, which may be unlikely with cloudy weather in the forecast for much of this province.
Don’t Stare Directly at the Sun
Officials advise that it is never safe to gaze directly at the sun’s rays—even during an eclipse when the sun is partly or mostly obscured.
If you intend to watch the eclipse, use specifically designated solar viewing or eclipse glasses throughout the entire event. Sunglasses do not provide adequate protection.
Otherwise, NASA recommends using a pinhole projector to cast the sunlight onto a surface.
