The annular solar eclipse will be visible across North, Central, and South America on October 14. It’s the last one for the U.S. until 2039.

    Just to clarify, this is the last annular solar eclipse until 2039 but there will be a total solar eclipse April 8, 2024 which I won’t want to miss.

      I’ve already requested that day off. I’ve never seen a total eclipse and I’m going to see this one. My request was denied last time because I waited too long.

      That’s a cheap gift, “Happy Birthday Mom I got you a partial occultation of the sun”

          Well you absolutely have to write that in her card then. I hereby relinquish all rights and any legal ownership of that comment to all the sons and daughters whose mother’s share a birthday with said eclipse.

          P.s. - ain’t that magnanimous of me?

        The real gift is the very, very lengthy explanation of exactly what is going on.
