UNDERSTANDING

4. During a total solar eclipse, the
moon completely covers the sun,
blocking its light. This creates a
brief period of darkness known
as totality.

5. In a partial solar eclipse, the
moon covers only a portion of
the sun, leaving a crescent-
shaped sliver of sunlight visible.

6. An annular solar eclipse occurs when the moon is
farthest from Earth in its orbit, appearing smaller and
not completely covering the sun. This creates a ring of
sunlight around the dark silhouette of the moon.

7. Umbra Penumbra

8. Safety precautions are essential when
observing a solar eclipse. Looking directly
at the sun without proper eye protection
can cause permanent eye damage.
Specialized solar viewing glasses or
handheld solar viewers must be used
to safely observe a solar eclipse.
