Right now, a path of shadow will traverse the Western Hemisphere, commencing at the Oregon coast and culminating on the shores of Brazil. This celestial phenomenon is a solar eclipse, known as an annular eclipse, which will manifest as a ring of fire in the skies for millions of people in the United States and various Latin American countries.

The term “annular” is employed by astronomers to characterize such occurrences. Diverging from a total eclipse, this phenomenon takes place when the moon is at its greatest distance from the Earth. Instead of completely obscuring the sun, the moon allows a ring of sunlight to encircle its outer edge.
