Detailed view

Time	Event	Direction	Altitude
11:36:54 Mon, Dec 28	Partial eclipse begins The moment the edge of the Moon touches the edge of the Sun is called first contact. Since the Sun is near the horizon at this time, we recommend going to a high point or finding an unobstructed area with free sight to the SSE for the best view of the eclipse.	147°	0.6°
12:58:55 Mon, Dec 28	Annularity begins The moment the Sun forms a ring around the Moon is called second contact. The Sun is close to the horizon, so make sure you have free sight to the SSE.	165°	4.4°
13:01:38 Mon, Dec 28	Maximum eclipse The deepest point of the eclipse, with the Sun at its most hidden. The Sun is close to the horizon, so make sure you have free sight to the SSE.	166°	4.5°
13:04:20 Mon, Dec 28	Annularity ends The moment the Sun’s ring around the Moon is broken is called third contact. The Sun is close to the horizon, so make sure you have free sight to the SSE.	166°	4.6°
14:28:14 Mon, Dec 28	Partial eclipse ends The moment the edge of the Moon leaves the edge of the Sun is called fourth contact. The Sun is close to the horizon, so make sure you have free sight to the S.	186°	5.2°

* Timings for the beginning & end of partial eclipse, the beginning & end of annularity, and maximum eclipse are accurate to within a few seconds. This calculation uses a Delta T value of 105.1 seconds.
Timings for other events are approximate—they are included here as a rough guide to features that might be observable. The icons show the position of the Moon against the Sun at each stage.

How to use altitude & direction to find in the sky

This annular solar eclipse is fully visible in Chevak. Observers there can experience the “ring of fire” that is characteristic for this kind of solar eclipse. This is a rare and spectacular event that can only be experienced along a relatively narrow strip on the Earth's surface. The eclipse is also visible in other areas, but the Moon does not move centrally in front of the Sun there and the “ring of fire” is not visible.
