Skygazers are treated with another heavenly event just a few weeks after a total lunar eclipse. A partially solar eclipse will create a unique -looking sunrise on Saturday, March 29, but it will only be visible in the northeast of the USA, in Ostkanada, in West Africa and in Europe.
Every year there are two to five solar eclipses that can occur from any kind – partly, ring -like, totally or hybrid – but an important factor is where it can be visible from the earth.
In the United States in particular, the partial solar eclipse is seen to a certain degree of Washington, DC and 13 states: Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia and West Virginia.
Happy spectators only in the northeast of Maine and in the southwest of New Brunswick and Eastern Quebec in Canada can also see a “double sunrise”. This happens when the silhouette of the moon looks like two “horns” from the horizon.
Here is what will happen and how you look at it safely.
What happens during a partial solar eclipse?
A partially solar eclipse occurs when the moon runs between the sun and earth. As a result, the sun throws a shadow of the moon onto the earth, which will cover parts of the northern hemisphere.
The reason why it is not a total solar eclipse like that in April 2024 is that the sun, moon and earth are not perfectly erected. According to NASA, the moon only partially covers the sun, which gives it a crescent moon shape for the partially solar eclipse on Saturday.
When can you see it and where?
The partly solar eclipse in the northeast of the United States begins early Saturday morning around 4:50 a.m. and shortly before 8:43 a.m.
Here are the most important US cities that you can see best to see the partially solar eclipse together with the time and visibility percentages when the sometimes solar eclipse can be seen with special viewing glasses. NASA added an asterisk next to the sunrise time, which indicates that the partial solar eclipse began at the time of the certificate.

How to look at it safely

The NASA advises Skygazers that when looking at a partial solar eclipse “you have to watch safe solar observers (‘Eclipse glass’) or a safe handheld viewer at any time.
The space agency also advises the audience not to look at the sun through a camera lens, a telescope or binoculars while wearing sunglasses or using a solar viewer because they can expose the person to a potentially serious eye injury. According to NASA, a special solar filter must be connected to the front of such optical devices in order to safely observe the sometimes solar eclipse.
If you don’t have a solar eclipse or a cell phone cell phone cell phone cell phone, you can look at it through an indirect viewing method such as creating a Pinhole project.
