One can see the Annular Solar Eclipse 2020 from India, parts of Europe, Asia, North of Australia, Africa, Pacific, and the Indian Ocean. In India, one can see the Solar Eclipse 2020 or Surya Grahan 2020 at 9:15 am.
The solar eclipse will remain for six hours:
The full eclipse will begin at 10:17 am and will remain visible till 2:02 pm.
The maximum eclipse will be at 12:10 pm.
This solar eclipse takes place two weeks after the lunar eclipse. The lunar penumbral eclipse 2020 occurred on 5th June.
In general, NASA defines this eclipse as, a phenomenon that happens when the moon is farthest from Earth. Because the moon is farther away from Earth, it seems smaller and does not block the entire view of the sun.
It must be noted that one must never look at the sun with the naked eye during a solar eclipse; it can cause severe damage to the eyes. It is advised that one must wear solar eclipse glasses while watching the sun during this period.
