The sun will be blocked by the moon, which will appear slightly smaller, producing the glowing ring in the sky. This phenomenon, known as an annular solar eclipse, was last seen in the U.S. in 2012 and won\u2019t be visible again in the continental U.S. until 2039.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are in the path of the eclipse, with the right eye protection, you\u2019ll be able to safely see this rare celestial display\u2014and you might hear and feel the eclipse, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All lower 48 U.S. states will get a partial eclipse, but only certain areas in Oregon, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas will get the full \u201cring of fire\u201d effect. This phase of the eclipse begins at 9:16 a.m. Pacific time in Oregon and sweeps across the country, passing over San Antonio, Texas, at 11:52 a.m. Central time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Parts of some Central and South American countries, including Nicaragua, Panama, Colombia, and Brazil, will also see the annular eclipse.\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/solarsystem.nasa.gov\/eclipses\/2023\/oct-14-annular\/where-when\/\" target=\"_blank\">Maps created by NASA<\/a>\u00a0show the path where the ring of fire will be visible and the times for best viewing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[ <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalgeographic.com\/science\/article\/ring-of-fire-annular-eclipse-how-to-see\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">click to continue reading at NatGeo<\/a> ]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>from National Geographic A rare \u2018ring of fire\u2019 eclipse is coming.
