A partial solar eclipse occurred at the Moon's ascending node of orbit on Friday, October 31, 1902,[1][2] with a magnitude of 0.696. 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 Northern Europe, Eastern Europe, the northern Middle East, South Asia, East Asia, and North Asia.
