How long will the annular solar eclipse last on October 14?
Observers within the circular path, a 125-mile-wide (200-kilometer) orbit, will experience the Ring of Fire, while observers outside the path will see parts of it eclipse,in moon Seems like a “bite” from the sun – waiting for clear skies of course!
If you’re lucky enough to be within the circular path, the entire eclipse will last about two and a half hours from start to finish. According to the agency, this is divided into several eclipse phases, including a partial eclipse of about 1.5 hours, an annular “ring of fire” eclipse of four to five minutes, and then another partial eclipse of about 1.5 hours.

NASA plans to use 34-meter telescope to observe two upcoming solar eclipses in the United States
both of them upcoming solar eclipse Are scientists particularly excited because they occur during a very active period right now? solar cycle —The solar activity cycle, driven by the sun’s magnetic field, is approximately 11 years. During the current Solar Cycle 25, solar activity is accelerating to the predicted “solar maximum period” 2024.
