Where will I be able to see it?

The partial solar eclipse will be visible in parts of the UK between 10 am and appearing on Saturday – with better viewing chances in the east where the sky must be clearer – and in several other parts of the world, including Gharbia EuropeGreenland, northwestern Africa and North North America.
“It will not be total anywhere, but there are parts of Canada Jake Foster of Royal said, as it will be about 90 %. So it will be impressive there. “
While he added that the situation in the UK will vary based on the site, it is expected that between 30 % and 40 % of the sun in general. “It will be the best place in the UK in the northwest, parts of Northern Ireland and Scotland, with about 40-45 %,” said Foster.
He added: “The weather forecast looks good in reality, as much as we can say. So we are very optimistic.”
But those who hope that those who hope will come down. “The thing is, with a partial solar eclipse like this [with] “About 30-40 % of the sun is banned, if you are not looking, you will not really notice the difference,” said Foster.
“In the partial solar eclipse, you are unlikely to notice that he gets any darker or more cold in the same way you want during the total eclipse. You really have to monitor this to see its effects really.”
The timing of the event is also different by site, but in London it will start at 10.07 am, as the moon reaches the maximum coverage of the sun at 11.03 am before it ends at noon.

The total of the next visible solar eclipse from the United Kingdom is in 2090. However, in August 2026, the total solar eclipse will be visible through a lot of EuropeIncluding parts of Spain.
“In fact, it will be above some islands like Ibiza,” said Jake Foster of the Royal Observatory. Those who can’t get away may still want to get rid of Coland, as viewers in the United Kingdom will be dealt with another partial solar eclipse.
How can I width the eclipse safely?

“If people want to watch it directly, and actually look at the sun, they will need a pair of sunglasses or solar scenes,” said Jake Foster of the Royal Observatory. “They use a special candidate that blocks 99.9999 % of sunlight, making it safe for us to look at it. Likewise, solar telescope uses similar filters.”
However, there are simple ways to display the partial solar eclipse indirectly. Foster recommends that either a colander from your kitchen, or a piece of paper with a small opening in it, and raise it until the sunlight lights through the holes. This will display a picture of the eclipse on the floor, wall, or another piece of paper.
He said: “It will seem that the sun will come out of it, but it will be shown so that it can watch it safely as it happens.” “Sometimes the sunlight that passes through the gaps between the leaves in the trees can be the same effect.”
Warning for those of you plan to see an outdoor eclipse instead of the Internet (crazy, I know):
Looking directly to the sun – during eclipse or otherwise – can lead to an irreversible vision.
The sky is recommended to purchase the eclipse width glasses and make sure they are in good condition.
Even a slight defect or a “microscopic hole” can cause eye damage, warning the Paris Observatory.
What is the partial solar eclipse?
Nicolas Davis
Partial solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes between the Earth and the sun, and partially prevents sunlight. In contrast, in the total solar eclipse, the moon completely prevents sunlight.
“This eclipse, whether partial or total, is effectively watching every hour of the solar system at work,” said Jake Foster, a royal astronomer.
Partial solar eclipse to be visible in the northern hemisphere
The sky will be available through large areas of the northern hemisphere. Canada To Siberia.
The partial eclipse, the first of the year and 17 of this century, will continue about four hours from 8.50 am to 12.43 pm GMT.
Current observers may be to ensure their eyes are able to see the heavenly show in most EuropeAs well as in some regions of northeastern North America and northern West Africa.
The eclipse occurs when the sun, moon and earth shine. When they fully comply with the solar overall eclipse, the moon completely explodes on the sun’s disk, creating a strange twilight here on Earth.
But this will not happen during the partial eclipse on Saturday, which will turn the sun instead into a crescent.
“The alignment is not perfect enough to connect the shade cone on the surface of the earth,” Florent Delevilla, astronomer in Paris, told AFP.
He said that this shade will remain in space, there will be no entire eclipse anywhere “on Earth.
At most, the moon will cover about 90 percent of the sun’s tablet. It will be the best view from northeastern Canada and Greenland at a peak of 10.47 GMT.
We will have a direct flow for you to see it soon …
