A partial solar eclipse occurred at the Moon's ascending node of orbit on Monday, November 3, 1975,[1] with a magnitude of 0.9588. 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.

A partial eclipse was visible for parts of southern South America and Antarctica.
