Get Ready for the Rare Hybrid Solar Eclipse of April 20th!
TL;DR
On April 20, a rare hybrid solar eclipse will occur, with the moon's shadow first creating an annular eclipse before transitioning to a total eclipse as it crosses the Earth. The eclipse will be visible in parts of Australia, Indonesia, Southeast Asia, New Zealand, and Antarctica. Observers are advised to never look at the sun with the unaided eye and to use proper solar filters or pinhole cameras. Unfortunately, Barrow Island, a location where the eclipse will be visible, will not allow astronomers or naturalists to visit due to a scheduled maintenance event.
