Partial solar eclipse on March 29, to be visible in these continents
On March 29, 2025, a partial solar eclipse will occur, primarily visible from various regions in the Northern Hemisphere. Here are the continents and specific areas where the eclipse can be observed:
Europe: Most of Europe will experience a significant partial eclipse.
Asia: Northern parts of Asia will also witness the event.
Africa: Northwest Africa will have visibility of the eclipse.
North America: The northeastern regions, particularly extreme eastern areas, will see the best views, especially at sunrise.
South America: Parts of northern South America will be able to observe the eclipse.
The eclipse will not reach totality as the moon’s central shadow will pass south of Earth, but up to 94% of the sun may be obscured in certain locations, particularly in far northern Quebec, Canada.
The event begins around 08:50 UTC and lasts until approximately 12:43 UTC, with the maximum obscuration occurring at 10:47 UTC.
This eclipse is part of a series of solar eclipses occurring in 2025, with another expected on September 21, 2025, which will be visible from the Southern Hemisphere.
This astronomical event is anticipated to attract considerable interest from astronomers and sky watchers alike.
