An annular solar eclipse will occur on October 9, 2200. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partly obscuring the image of the Sun for a viewer on Earth. An annular solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is smaller than the Sun's, blocking most of the Sun's light and causing the Sun to look like an annulus (ring). An annular eclipse appears as a partial eclipse over a region of the Earth thousands of kilometres wide.
The annular eclipse will be visible over Madagascar, Réunion and Mauritius. The partial eclipse will be visible across Sri Lanka, the southern tip of India, most of Australia, Malaysia, Indonesia, portions of southern Africa, most of Antarctica, and New Zealand.[1]
