Solar eclipse occurs while the New Moon moves between the Sun and the Earth, covers out the Sunlight and throwing a shadow on Earth's Surface. There are 4 different types of solar eclipses. How much of the Sun's surface is eclipsed, the eclipse magnitude, depends on which portion of the Moon's shadow falls on the Earth surface. Partial solar eclipses, Annular solar eclipses, Total solar eclipses and Hybrid Solar Eclipses / annular-total eclipses these are the four types of solar eclipse.

What Are Solar Eclipses &
Various Type of solar eclipses
A solar eclipse is a spectacular and the rare astronomical sight which is visible for each individual from a
limited area.
The Moon Eclipses the Sun
Solar eclipse occurs while the New Moon moves between the Sun and
the Earth, covers out the Sunlight and throwing a shadow on Earth's
Surface.
The Moon's shadow isn't sufficiently large to immerse the whole planet,
so the shadow is constantly restricted to a specific territory. The region
changes over the span of the shroud on the grounds that the Moon and
Earth are in consistent movement: Earth constantly turns around its pivot
while it circles the Sun, and the Moon circles Earth. This is the reason
eclipse appear to transit starting with one spot then onto the next.
Different Types of Solar Eclipses
There are 4 different types of solar eclipses. How much of the Sun's surface
is eclipsed, the eclipse magnitude, depends on which portion of the Moon's
shadow falls on the Earth surface.
Partial solar eclipses
Annular solar eclipses
Total solar eclipses
Hybrid Solar Eclipses / annular-total eclipses
Partial solar eclipses
Occurs only while the Moon partially obscures the Sun's disk and casts only its obscuration on Earth.
Annular solar eclipses
Occurs when the Moon's circle isn't sufficiently large to cover the whole Sun, and the Sun's
external edges stay noticeable to shape a ring of fire in the sky. An annular eclipse of the Sun
happens when the Moon is close to apogee, and the Moon's ant umbra falls on Earth.
Total solar eclipses
Occurs when the Moon covers the Sun completely, and it can possibly occur when the Moon
is close to perigee, the point of the Moon's orbit nearest to Earth. One can possibly observe a
complete total solar eclipse in case they are in the way where the Moon's casts its darkest
shadow, the umbra with help of a solar eclipse viewing glasses.
Hybrid Solar Eclipses / annular-
total eclipses
This is the rarest eclipse type swaps between an annular and total eclipse. At specific focuses on
the earth’s surface, it shows up as a total eclipse, while at different focuses it shows up as
annular.
Secure Your Eyes!
Solar eclipses are only visible from within the
zone on Earth where the Moon's shadow casts,
and the closer you are to the focal point of the
shadow's way, the greater the solar eclipse
looks.
Never take a look at the Sun eclipse, with
the naked eyes. The Sun's ultraviolet radiation
can burnout the retinas in your eyes
prompting permanent harm or even visual
impairment. The most ideal approach to
securely watch the eclipse is to buy & wear
the best solar viewing glasses or to project a
picture of the eclipse with a pinhole projector
