A total solar eclipse will occur at the Moon's ascending node of orbit between Saturday, September 1 and Sunday, September 2, 2035,[1] with a magnitude of 1.032. 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 total solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is larger than the Sun's, blocking all direct sunlight, turning day into darkness. Totality occurs in a narrow path across Earth's surface, with the partial solar eclipse visible over a surrounding region thousands of kilometres wide. Occurring about 2.9 days after perigee (on August 30, 2035, at 3:35 UTC), the Moon's apparent diameter will be larger.[2]
Totality will be visible from parts of northern China, North Korea, and Japan. A partial eclipse will be visible for most of Asia, northern Oceania, Hawaii, southwest Alaska, and the western United States.
