Which year can Solar eclipse occur in Ghana?

Solar eclipses can occur in Ghana in any given year, as they are a natural astronomical phenomenon. The occurrence of a solar eclipse depends on the alignment of the Sun, Moon, and Earth, and can happen at different times throughout the year. It is important to refer to specific astronomical predictions and schedules to determine when a solar eclipse will be visible from Ghana in a particular year.

About 1-2 times a year. However, each solar eclipse can only be seen in parts of the Earth, so it may take quite a while until a solar eclipse happens precisely where you happen to live - and even longer if you want to wait for a total solar eclipse.

Does a solar eclipse occur on when the moon is new?

No. In order for a solar eclipse to occur, the Sun, Moon and Earth must line up precisely. Most of the time, the alignment is wrong and the shadow of the Moon points either "above" or "below" the Earth without touching it. Only about twice a year is the alignment close enough to have an eclipse. In many cases, the alignment is very close, and you have a solar eclipse and a lunar eclipse just two weeks apart. In some years, like 2008, the alignment is particularly bad, so last year we had three PARTIAL solar eclipses and one annular eclipse instead of the typical two.
