A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, blocking all or part of the Sun's light. This alignment can happen only during a new moon phase, and depending on the distances and positions of the three celestial bodies, it can result in a total, partial, or annular eclipse. The path of totality, where observers can see a total eclipse, is narrow and moves across the Earth's surface. Outside this path, a partial eclipse is visible.
