Watch the "Ring of Fire" Solar Eclipse (NASA Broadcast Trailer)

On Oct. 14, 2023, a "ring of fire," or annular, solar eclipse will travel from Oregon coast to the Gulf of Mexico. Weather permitting, most of the Americas will be able to view at least a partial solar eclipse.
An annular solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Sun and the Earth, but is just far away enough in its orbit that the Sun is not completely covered-creating a large, bright ring in the sky.
