Millions of people in the Americas will be in a position to witness an astronomical treat on Oct. 14 with a solar eclipse in which - weather permitting - the moon will be seen passing in front of the sun.

A solar eclipse happens when the moon journeys between Earth and the sun, blocking the view along a small path ofof some or all of the sun's face as it passes. The one that will occur on Oct. 14 is a type called an "annular solar eclipse." This occurs when the moon passes between Earth and the sun at a time when the moon is at or close to its farthest point from our planet. It does not completely obscure the face of the sun, unlike in a total solar eclipse.
