Description: Provides a description of the different types of solar eclipse and a table with information on upcoming eclipses.
A solar eclipse is probably the most spectacular celestial event that people can experience. The Moon slowly turns broad daylight into night as it glides in front of the Sun, hiding it from view. If the eclipse is total, at mid- eclipse, the Sun has completely vanished, but its ephemeral corona surrounds the blackened Moon like a crown.
