Eclipse-chasing in all its forms is a wonderful excuse to explore our planet — but only if you plan ahead. Whilst seeing a perfect defined ring is aesthetically nice, it is just a moment, where as the beads can be up to fifteen minutes of fun. The acceleration and the deceleration of beads either before or after mid-eclipse is breathtaking. Log in to Reply.

The solar eclipse, expected around sunrise , will appear that way because the moon is at or near the most distant point in its elliptical orbit around the Earth right now, so when it passes between us and our nearest star it will block out just part of the sun.
A total solar eclipse happens when the moon covers up the entire sun so that only a haze of light around the darkened moon is visible. Annular solar eclipse: This is when the moon is at its farthest point from the Earth and appears very small. The whole moon passes in front of the sun, creating what looks like a doughnut hole in the middle of the star.
Partial solar eclipse: This occurs when the three celestial bodies are not perfectly lined up, so only part of the moon passes in front of the sun. In this case, the sun will look like it's had a bite taken out of it.
According to NASA, viewers in the Southeast, Northeast and Midwestern continental United States as well as in northern Alaska will be able to see a partial eclipse before, during and just after sunrise. Check the weather for Salt Lake City. Salt Lake City Eclipse Countdown.
