An annular solar eclipse will occur at the Moon's descending node of orbit on Saturday, June 11, 2067,[1] with a magnitude of 0.967. 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 4.3 days before apogee (on June 16, 2067, at 4:05 UTC), the Moon's apparent diameter will be smaller.[2]
The path of annularity will be visible from parts of Kiribati, Ecuador, northern Peru, extreme southern Colombia, and extreme western Brazil. A partial solar eclipse will also be visible for parts of Oceania, Hawaii, southern North America, Central America, the Caribbean, and western South America.
