Instead, because the Moon's orbit is <a href="/wiki/Inclination" class="mw-redirect" title="Inclination">tilted</a> at about 5 degrees to Earth's orbit, its shadow usually misses Earth. Solar (and lunar) eclipses therefore happen only during <a href="/wiki/Eclipse_season" title="Eclipse season">eclipse seasons</a>, resulting in at least two, and up to five, solar eclipses each year, no more than two of which can be total.<a href="#cite_note-totality-2">[2]</a><a href="#cite_note-3">[3]</a> Total eclipses are rarer because they require a more precise alignment between the centers of the <a href="/wiki/Sun" title="Sun">Sun</a> and <a href="/wiki/Moon" title="Moon">Moon</a>, and because the Moon's <a href="/wiki/Angular_diameter" title="Angular diameter">apparent size</a> in the sky is sometimes too small to fully cover the Sun. An eclipse is a <a href="/wiki/List_of_natural_phenomena" title="List of natural phenomena">natural phenomenon</a>. In some ancient and modern cultures, solar eclipses were attributed to <a href="/wiki/Supernatural" title="Supernatural">supernatural</a> causes or regarded as bad <a href="/wiki/Omen" title="Omen">omens</a>.

Moon's distance, and the Sun's <a href="/wiki/Diameter" title="Diameter">diameter</a> is about 400 times the Moon's diameter. Because these ratios are approximately the same, the Sun and the Moon as seen from Earth appear to be approximately the same size: about 0.5 <a href="/wiki/Degree_of_arc" class="mw-redirect" title="Degree of arc">degree of arc</a> in angular measure.<a href="#cite_note-Harrington10-6">[6]</a> The Moon's orbit around Earth is slightly <a href="/wiki/Ellipse" title="Ellipse">elliptical</a>, as is Earth's orbit around the Sun. The apparent sizes of the Sun and Moon therefore vary.<a href="#cite_note-7">[7]</a> The <a href="/wiki/Magnitude_of_an_eclipse" class="mw-redirect" title="Magnitude of an eclipse">magnitude of an eclipse</a> is the ratio of the apparent size of the Moon to the apparent size of the Sun during an eclipse. An eclipse that occurs when the Moon is near its closest distance to Earth (i.e., near its <a href="/wiki/Perigee" class="mw-redirect" title="Perigee">perigee</a>) can be a total eclipse because the Moon will appear to be large enough to completely cover the Sun's bright disk or <a href="/wiki/Photosphere" title="Photosphere">photosphere</a>; a total eclipse has a magnitude greater than or equal to 1.000. Conversely, an eclipse that occurs when the Moon is near its farthest distance from Earth (i.e., near its <a href="/wiki/Apogee" class="mw-redirect" title="Apogee">apogee</a>) can be only an annular eclipse because the Moon will appear to be slightly smaller than the Sun; the magnitude of an annular eclipse is less than 1.<a href="#cite_note-8">[8]</a> Because Earth's orbit around the Sun is also elliptical, Earth's distance from the Sun similarly varies throughout the year. This affects the apparent size of the Sun in the same way, but not as much as does the Moon's varying distance from Earth.<a href="#cite_note-Harrington10-6">[6]</a> When Earth approaches its <a href="/wiki/Aphelion" class="mw-redirect" title="Aphelion">farthest distance from the Sun</a> in early July, a total eclipse is somewhat more likely, whereas conditions favour an annular eclipse when Earth approaches its <a href="/wiki/Perihelion" class="mw-redirect" title="Perihelion">closest distance to the Sun</a> in early January.<a href="#cite_note-9">[9]</a> There are three main types of solar eclipses:<a href="#cite_note-Baylor2024-10">[10]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Total_eclipse">Total eclipse</h3></div> A total eclipse occurs on average every 18 months<a href="#cite_note-:0-11">[11]</a> when the dark silhouette of the Moon completely obscures the bright light of the Sun, allowing the much fainter <a href="/wiki/Solar_corona" class="mw-redirect" title="Solar corona">solar corona</a> to be visible.

Hybrid eclipses are comparatively rare.<a href="#cite_note-Harrington10-6">[6]</a> A hybrid eclipse occurs when the magnitude of an eclipse changes during the event from less to greater than one, so the eclipse appears to be total at locations nearer the midpoint, and annular at other locations nearer the beginning and end, since the sides of Earth are slightly further away from the Moon. These eclipses are extremely narrow in their path width and relatively short in their duration at any point compared with fully total eclipses; the <a href="/wiki/Solar_eclipse_of_April_20,_2023" title="Solar eclipse of April 20, 2023">2023 April 20 hybrid eclipse</a>'s totality is over a minute in duration at various points along the path of totality. Like a <a href="/wiki/Focus_(optics)" title="Focus (optics)">focal point</a>, the width and duration of totality and annularity are near zero at the points where the changes between the two occur.<a href="#cite_note-16">[16]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Central_eclipse">Central eclipse</h3></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1237032888/mw-parser-output/.tmulti">.mw-parser-output .tmulti .multiimageinner{display:flex;flex-direction:column}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .trow{display:flex;flex-direction:row;clear:left;flex-wrap:wrap;width:100%;box-sizing:border-box}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .tsingle{margin:1px;float:left}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .theader{clear:both;font-weight:bold;text-align:center;align-self:center;background-color:transparent;width:100%}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .thumbcaption{background-color:transparent}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .text-align-left{text-align:left}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .text-align-right{text-align:right}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .text-align-center{text-align:center}@media all and (max-width:720px){.mw-parser-output .tmulti .thumbinner{width:100%!important;box-sizing:border-box;max-width:none!important;align-items:center}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .trow{justify-content:center}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .tsingle{float:none!important;max-width:100%!important;box-sizing:border-box;text-align:center}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .tsingle .thumbcaption{text-align:left}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .trow>.thumbcaption{text-align:center}}@media screen{html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .tmulti .multiimageinner img{background-color:white}}@media screen and (prefers-color-scheme:dark){html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .tmulti .multiimageinner img{background-color:white}}</style><div class="thumb tmulti tright"><div class="thumbinner multiimageinner" style="width:458px;max-width:458px"><div class="trow"><div class="tsingle" style="width:252px;max-width:252px"><div class="thumbimage"><a href="/wiki/File:Solar_eclipse_visualisation.svg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ad/Solar_eclipse_visualisation.svg/250px-Solar_eclipse_visualisation.svg.png" decoding="async" width="250" height="250" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="512" data-file-height="512"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 250px;height: 250px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ad/Solar_eclipse_visualisation.svg/250px-Solar_eclipse_visualisation.svg.png" data-alt="" data-width="250" data-height="250" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ad/Solar_eclipse_visualisation.svg/375px-Solar_eclipse_visualisation.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ad/Solar_eclipse_visualisation.svg/500px-Solar_eclipse_visualisation.svg.png 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a></div><div class="thumbcaption">Each icon shows the view from the centre of its black spot, representing the Moon (not to scale)</div></div><div class="tsingle" style="width:202px;max-width:202px"><div class="thumbimage"><a href="/wiki/File:Exit_Diamond_Ring_Effect.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ae/Exit_Diamond_Ring_Effect.jpg/200px-Exit_Diamond_Ring_Effect.jpg" decoding="async" width="200" height="252" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="1623" data-file-height="2047"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 200px;height: 252px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ae/Exit_Diamond_Ring_Effect.jpg/200px-Exit_Diamond_Ring_Effect.jpg" data-alt="" data-width="200" data-height="252" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ae/Exit_Diamond_Ring_Effect.jpg/300px-Exit_Diamond_Ring_Effect.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ae/Exit_Diamond_Ring_Effect.jpg/400px-Exit_Diamond_Ring_Effect.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a></div><div class="thumbcaption">Diamond ring effect at third contact—the end of totality—with visible prominences (<a href="/wiki/Solar_eclipse_of_August_21,_2017" title="Solar eclipse of August 21, 2017">August 21, 2017</a>)</div></div></div></div></div> Central eclipse is often used as a generic term for a total, annular, or hybrid eclipse.<a href="#cite_note-SEpath-17">[17]</a> This is, however, not completely correct: the definition of a central eclipse is an eclipse during which the central line of the umbra touches Earth's surface.

The Moon's distance from Earth varies by up to about 5.9% from its average value. Therefore, the Moon's apparent size varies with its distance from Earth, and it is this effect that leads to the difference between total and annular eclipses. The distance of Earth from the Sun also varies during the year, but this is a smaller effect (by up to about 0.85% from its average value). On average, the Moon appears to be slightly (2.1%) smaller than the Sun as seen from Earth, so the majority (about 60%) of central eclipses are annular.

This is known as the <a href="/wiki/Sidereal_month" class="mw-redirect" title="Sidereal month">sidereal month</a>. However, during one sidereal month, Earth has revolved part way around the Sun, making the average time between one new moon and the next longer than the sidereal month: it is approximately 29.5 days. This is known as the <a href="/wiki/Synodic_month" class="mw-redirect" title="Synodic month">synodic month</a> and corresponds to what is commonly called the <a href="/wiki/Lunar_month" title="Lunar month">lunar month</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Harrington-21">[21]</a> The Moon crosses from south to north of the ecliptic at its <a href="/wiki/Ascending_node" class="mw-redirect" title="Ascending node">ascending node</a>, and vice versa at its descending node.<a href="#cite_note-Harrington-21">[21]</a> However, the nodes of the Moon's orbit are gradually moving in a <a href="/wiki/Retrograde_motion" class="mw-redirect" title="Retrograde motion">retrograde motion</a>, due to the action of the Sun's gravity on the Moon's motion, and they make a complete circuit every 18.6 years. This regression means that the time between each passage of the Moon through the ascending node is slightly shorter than the sidereal month. This period is called the nodical or <a href="/wiki/Draconic_month" class="mw-redirect" title="Draconic month">draconic month</a>.<a href="#cite_note-25">[25]</a> Finally, the Moon's perigee is moving forwards or precessing in its orbit and makes a complete circuit in 8.85 years. The time between one perigee and the next is slightly longer than the sidereal month and known as the <a href="/wiki/Anomalistic_month" class="mw-redirect" title="Anomalistic month">anomalistic month</a>.<a href="#cite_note-26">[26]</a> The Moon's orbit intersects with the ecliptic at the two nodes that are 180 degrees apart. Therefore, the new moon occurs close to the nodes at two periods of the year approximately six months (173.3 days) apart, known as <a href="/wiki/Eclipse_season" title="Eclipse season">eclipse seasons</a>, and there will always be at least one solar eclipse during these periods. Sometimes the new moon occurs close enough to a node during two consecutive months to eclipse the Sun on both occasions in two partial eclipses. This means that, in any given year, there will always be at least two solar eclipses, and there can be as many as five.<a href="#cite_note-27">[27]</a> Eclipses can occur only when the Sun is within about 15 to 18 degrees of a node, (10 to 12 degrees for central eclipses). This is referred to as an eclipse limit, and is given in ranges because the apparent sizes and speeds of the Sun and Moon vary throughout the year. In the time it takes for the Moon to return to a node (draconic month), the apparent position of the Sun has moved about 29 degrees, relative to the nodes.<a href="#cite_note-totality-2">[2]</a> Since the eclipse limit creates a window of opportunity of up to 36 degrees (24 degrees for central eclipses), it is possible for partial eclipses (or rarely a partial and a central eclipse) to occur in consecutive months.<a href="#cite_note-period-28">[28]</a><a href="#cite_note-29">[29]</a> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Graph_solar_eclipse_coverage.svg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/97/Graph_solar_eclipse_coverage.svg/220px-Graph_solar_eclipse_coverage.svg.png" decoding="async" width="220" height="220" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="512" data-file-height="512"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 220px;height: 220px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/97/Graph_solar_eclipse_coverage.svg/220px-Graph_solar_eclipse_coverage.svg.png" data-width="220" data-height="220" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/97/Graph_solar_eclipse_coverage.svg/330px-Graph_solar_eclipse_coverage.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/97/Graph_solar_eclipse_coverage.svg/440px-Graph_solar_eclipse_coverage.svg.png 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a><figcaption>Fraction of the Sun's disc covered, f, when the same-sized discs are offset a fraction t of their diameter.<a href="#cite_note-30">[30]</a></figcaption></figure> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Path">Path</h3></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:An_EPIC_Eclipse.gif" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/cb/An_EPIC_Eclipse.gif/220px-An_EPIC_Eclipse.gif" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="720" data-file-height="480"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 220px;height: 147px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/cb/An_EPIC_Eclipse.gif/220px-An_EPIC_Eclipse.gif" data-width="220" data-height="147" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/cb/An_EPIC_Eclipse.gif/330px-An_EPIC_Eclipse.gif 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/cb/An_EPIC_Eclipse.gif/440px-An_EPIC_Eclipse.gif 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a><figcaption>From space, the Moon's shadow during the <a href="/wiki/Solar_eclipse_of_March_9,_2016" title="Solar eclipse of March 9, 2016">solar eclipse of March 9, 2016</a> appears as a dark spot moving across Earth.</figcaption></figure> During a central eclipse, the Moon's umbra (or antumbra, in the case of an annular eclipse) moves rapidly from west to east across Earth. Earth is also rotating from west to east, at about 28 km/min at the Equator, but as the Moon is moving in the same direction as <a href="/wiki/Earth%27s_rotation" title="Earth's rotation">Earth's rotation</a> at about 61 km/min, the umbra almost always appears to move in a roughly west–east direction across a map of Earth at the speed of the Moon's orbital velocity minus Earth's rotational velocity.<a href="#cite_note-31">[31]</a> The width of the track of a central eclipse varies according to the relative apparent diameters of the Sun and Moon. In the most favourable circumstances, when a total eclipse occurs very close to perigee, the track can be up to 267 km (166 mi) wide and the duration of totality may be over 7 minutes.<a href="#cite_note-32">[32]</a> Outside of the central track, a partial eclipse is seen over a much larger area of Earth. Typically, the umbra is 100–160 km wide, while the penumbral diameter is in excess of 6400 km.<a href="#cite_note-33">[33]</a> <a href="/wiki/Besselian_elements" title="Besselian elements">Besselian elements</a> are used to predict whether an eclipse will be partial, annular, or total (or annular/total), and what the eclipse circumstances will be at any given location.<a href="#cite_note-ExplanatorySupplement3-34">[34]</a>: Chapter 11 Calculations with Besselian elements can determine the exact shape of the umbra's shadow on Earth's surface. But at what longitudes on Earth's surface the shadow will fall, is a function of Earth's rotation, and on how much that rotation has slowed down over time. A number called <a href="/wiki/%CE%94T_(timekeeping)" title="ΔT (timekeeping)">ΔT</a> is used in eclipse prediction to take this slowing into account. As Earth slows, ΔT increases. ΔT for dates in the future can only be roughly estimated because Earth's rotation is slowing irregularly. This means that, although it is possible to predict that there will be a total eclipse on a certain date in the far future, it is not possible to predict in the far future exactly at what longitudes that eclipse will be total. Historical records of eclipses allow estimates of past values of ΔT and so of Earth's rotation. <a href="#cite_note-ExplanatorySupplement3-34">[34]</a>: Equation 11.132 <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Duration">Duration</h3></div> The following factors determine the duration of a total solar eclipse (in order of decreasing importance):<a href="#cite_note-longest-35">[35]</a><a href="#cite_note-36">[36]</a> <ol><li>The Moon being almost exactly at perigee (making its angular diameter as large as possible).</li> <li>Earth being very near <a href="/wiki/Apsis" title="Apsis">aphelion</a> (furthest away from the Sun in its elliptical orbit, making its angular diameter nearly as small as possible).</li> <li>The midpoint of the eclipse being very close to Earth's equator, where the rotational velocity is greatest and is closest to the speed of the lunar shadow moving over Earth's surface.</li> <li>The vector of the eclipse path at the midpoint of the eclipse aligning with the vector of Earth's rotation (i.e. not diagonal but due east).</li> <li>The midpoint of the eclipse being near the <a href="/wiki/Subsolar_point" title="Subsolar point">subsolar point</a> (the part of Earth closest to the Sun).</li></ol> The longest eclipse that has been calculated thus far is the eclipse of <a href="/wiki/Solar_eclipse_of_July_16,_2186" title="Solar eclipse of July 16, 2186">July 16, 2186</a> (with a maximum duration of 7 minutes 29 seconds over northern Guyana).<a href="#cite_note-longest-35">[35]</a> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(4)"><h2 id="Occurrence_and_cycles">Occurrence and cycles</h2></div><section class="mf-section-4 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-4"> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Eclipse_cycle" title="Eclipse cycle">Eclipse cycle</a></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Eclipse_vs_new_or_full_moons,_annotated.svg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b9/Eclipse_vs_new_or_full_moons%2C_annotated.svg/220px-Eclipse_vs_new_or_full_moons%2C_annotated.svg.png" decoding="async" width="220" height="111" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="1536" data-file-height="772"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 220px;height: 111px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b9/Eclipse_vs_new_or_full_moons%2C_annotated.svg/220px-Eclipse_vs_new_or_full_moons%2C_annotated.svg.png" data-width="220" data-height="111" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b9/Eclipse_vs_new_or_full_moons%2C_annotated.svg/330px-Eclipse_vs_new_or_full_moons%2C_annotated.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b9/Eclipse_vs_new_or_full_moons%2C_annotated.svg/440px-Eclipse_vs_new_or_full_moons%2C_annotated.svg.png 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a><figcaption>As Earth revolves around the Sun, approximate <a href="/wiki/Axial_parallelism" title="Axial parallelism">axial parallelism</a> of the Moon's orbital plane (<a href="/wiki/Orbital_inclination" title="Orbital inclination">tilted</a> five degrees to Earth<a href="/wiki/Ecliptic" title="Ecliptic">'s orbital plane</a>) results in the revolution of the <a href="/wiki/Lunar_nodes" class="mw-redirect" title="Lunar nodes">lunar nodes</a> relative to Earth.

Only properly designed and certified solar filters should be used for direct viewing of the Sun's disk.<a href="#cite_note-53">[53]</a> Especially, self-made filters using common objects such as a <a href="/wiki/Floppy_disk" title="Floppy disk">floppy disk</a> removed from its case, a <a href="/wiki/Compact_Disc" class="mw-redirect" title="Compact Disc">Compact Disc</a>, a black colour slide film, smoked glass, etc. must be avoided.<a href="#cite_note-54">[54]</a><a href="#cite_note-perkins-55">[55]</a> The safest way to view the Sun's disk is by indirect projection.<a href="#cite_note-Harrington25-56">[56]</a> This can be done by projecting an image of the disk onto a white piece of paper or card using a pair of binoculars (with one of the lenses covered), a telescope, or another piece of cardboard with a small hole in it (about 1 mm diameter), often called a <a href="/wiki/Pinhole_camera" title="Pinhole camera">pinhole camera</a>. The projected image of the Sun can then be safely viewed; this technique can be used to observe <a href="/wiki/Sunspot" title="Sunspot">sunspots</a>, as well as eclipses. Care must be taken, however, to ensure that no one looks through the projector (telescope, pinhole, etc.) directly.<a href="#cite_note-57">[57]</a> A kitchen <a href="/wiki/Colander" title="Colander">colander</a> with small holes can also be used to project multiple images of the partially eclipsed Sun onto the ground or a viewing screen. Viewing the Sun's disk on a video display screen (provided by a <a href="/wiki/Video_camera" title="Video camera">video camera</a> or <a href="/wiki/Digital_camera" title="Digital camera">digital camera</a>) is safe, although the camera itself may be damaged by direct exposure to the Sun. The optical viewfinders provided with some video and digital cameras are not safe. Securely mounting #14 welder's glass in front of the lens and viewfinder protects the equipment and makes viewing possible.<a href="#cite_note-perkins-55">[55]</a> Professional workmanship is essential because of the dire consequences any gaps or detaching mountings will have. In the partial eclipse path, one will not be able to see the corona or nearly complete darkening of the sky. However, depending on how much of the Sun's disk is obscured, some darkening may be noticeable. If three-quarters or more of the Sun is obscured, then an effect can be observed by which the daylight appears to be dim, as if the sky were overcast, yet objects still cast sharp shadows.<a href="#cite_note-58">[58]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Totality">Totality</h3></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1237032888/mw-parser-output/.tmulti"><div class="thumb tmulti tright"><div class="thumbinner multiimageinner" style="width:352px;max-width:352px"><div class="trow"><div class="theader"><a href="/wiki/Solar_eclipse_of_August_21,_2017" title="Solar eclipse of August 21, 2017">Solar eclipse of August 21, 2017</a></div></div><div class="trow"><div class="tsingle" style="width:162px;max-width:162px"><div class="thumbimage"><a href="/wiki/File:August_21_2017_solar_eclipse_baily_beads_TLR2.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6b/August_21_2017_solar_eclipse_baily_beads_TLR2.jpg/160px-August_21_2017_solar_eclipse_baily_beads_TLR2.jpg" decoding="async" width="160" height="184" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="673" data-file-height="776"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 160px;height: 184px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6b/August_21_2017_solar_eclipse_baily_beads_TLR2.jpg/160px-August_21_2017_solar_eclipse_baily_beads_TLR2.jpg" data-alt="" data-width="160" data-height="184" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6b/August_21_2017_solar_eclipse_baily_beads_TLR2.jpg/240px-August_21_2017_solar_eclipse_baily_beads_TLR2.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6b/August_21_2017_solar_eclipse_baily_beads_TLR2.jpg/320px-August_21_2017_solar_eclipse_baily_beads_TLR2.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a></div><div class="thumbcaption"><a href="/wiki/Baily%27s_beads" title="Baily's beads">Baily's beads</a>, sunlight visible through lunar valleys</div></div><div class="tsingle" style="width:186px;max-width:186px"><div class="thumbimage"><a href="/wiki/File:A644,_August_21,_2017_total_solar_eclipse_composite_image_with_corona,_prominences_and_diamond_ring.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3c/A644%2C_August_21%2C_2017_total_solar_eclipse_composite_image_with_corona%2C_prominences_and_diamond_ring.jpg/184px-A644%2C_August_21%2C_2017_total_solar_eclipse_composite_image_with_corona%2C_prominences_and_diamond_ring.jpg" decoding="async" width="184" height="184" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="800" data-file-height="800"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 184px;height: 184px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3c/A644%2C_August_21%2C_2017_total_solar_eclipse_composite_image_with_corona%2C_prominences_and_diamond_ring.jpg/184px-A644%2C_August_21%2C_2017_total_solar_eclipse_composite_image_with_corona%2C_prominences_and_diamond_ring.jpg" data-alt="" data-width="184" data-height="184" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3c/A644%2C_August_21%2C_2017_total_solar_eclipse_composite_image_with_corona%2C_prominences_and_diamond_ring.jpg/276px-A644%2C_August_21%2C_2017_total_solar_eclipse_composite_image_with_corona%2C_prominences_and_diamond_ring.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3c/A644%2C_August_21%2C_2017_total_solar_eclipse_composite_image_with_corona%2C_prominences_and_diamond_ring.jpg/368px-A644%2C_August_21%2C_2017_total_solar_eclipse_composite_image_with_corona%2C_prominences_and_diamond_ring.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a></div><div class="thumbcaption">Composite image with <a href="/wiki/Solar_corona" class="mw-redirect" title="Solar corona">corona</a>, <a href="/wiki/Solar_prominence" title="Solar prominence">prominences</a>, and diamond ring effect</div></div></div></div></div> When the shrinking visible part of the photosphere becomes very small, <a href="/wiki/Baily%27s_beads" title="Baily's beads">Baily's beads</a> will occur.
