A partial solar eclipse occurred at the Moon's ascending node of orbit on Wednesday, June 10, 1964,[1] with a magnitude of 0.7545. 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. A partial solar eclipse occurs in the polar regions of the Earth when the center of the Moon's shadow misses the Earth.

This was the second of four partial solar eclipses in 1964, with the others occurring on January 14, July 9, and December 4.

A partial eclipse was visible for parts of Australia and western Oceania.
