An annular solar eclipse will occur at the Moon's ascending node of orbit on Saturday, July 13, 2075,^[1] with a magnitude of 0.9467. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partly obscuring the image of the Sun for a viewer on Earth. An annular solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is smaller than the Sun's, blocking most of the Sun's light and causing the Sun to look like an annulus (ring). An annular eclipse appears as a partial eclipse over a region of the Earth thousands of kilometres wide. Occurring about 1.4 days after apogee (on July 11, 2075, at 20:20 UTC), the Moon's apparent diameter will be smaller.^[2]

The path of annularity will be visible from parts of eastern Spain, southern France, Monaco, Italy, San Marino, Austria, Slovenia, Croatia, northwestern Bosnia and Herzegovina, Hungary, Slovakia, southwestern Czech Republic, extreme northwestern Romania, southeastern Poland, Ukraine, Belarus, and Russia. A partial solar eclipse will also be visible for parts of Europe, North Africa, Greenland, northern Canada, Alaska, and Asia.

The annular eclipse will cross Europe and Russia. Eight European capitals will observe annual eclipse: Monaco, San Marino, Ljubljana, Zagreb, Vienna, Bratislava, Budapest and Moscow. For Moscow it will be the first central eclipse since 1887. Other European large cities (non-capitals), in which the annular eclipse will be seen include Barcelona, Marseille, Genoa, Graz, Kraków, Lviv, Nizhny Novgorod, Kirov.
