The second solar eclipse of the year will be extremely rare
Astronomical scientists are very excited about the solar eclipse on October 2, because a rare sight will be seen during the eclipse. Let us tell you that this will be an annular solar eclipse. In this, like a total solar eclipse, the Sun, Moon and Earth are in a straight line. But this happens when the Moon is at the farthest point of its orbit, due to which it appears smaller.
In such a situation, instead of covering the Sun completely, the Moon covers only the centre of the Sun and appears like a ring around it. During this time, the sunlight appears like a ring in the sky. It has been named Ring of Fire by scientists.
