Stargazers and astronomers witnessed an annular solar eclipse in parts of the US, Central and South America.
The celestial event occurs when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, blocking out most but not quite all of the Sun’s light.
The path of the October 14 annular solar eclipse spanned a wide area. Those within the path of annularity witnessed the full “ring of fire” effect, while those nearby regions would have seen a partial eclipse.
