A Rare Ring-of-Fire 'Christmas Eclipse' Will Take Place On December 26th

It’s the ideal celestial gift. From some parts of the world, the sun will be partially eclipsed by the moon and then, for a few precious minutes, a “ring of fire” will appear in the daytime sky on December 26. It’s a special kind of “annular” solar eclipse that, unlike 2017’s “Great American Eclipse,” won’t block out the sun.

What is an annular solar eclipse?
Called everything from a “ring of fire” to a “ring of light," an annular solar eclipse occurs when the moon is relatively small in the sky. The moon has a slightly elliptical orbit around Earth, so it can appear larger or smaller in the sky depending on its position. When it’s close, it causes a supermoon. When it’s far away, and it crosses the ecliptic (the path of the sun through our sky) as a new moon, it fits precisely within the sun’s disk. This Christmas, the moon will cover 97% of the center of the sun.
