International Rocket Launches's video: Live Total Solar Eclipse - December 2020

A total solar eclipse will occur at the Moon’s descending node of the orbit on December 14, 2020. 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. A total solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is larger than the Sun's, blocking all direct sunlight, turning day into darkness. Totality occurs in a narrow path across Earth's surface, with the partial solar eclipse visible over a surrounding region thousands of kilometres wide. The Moon’s apparent diameter will be larger because the eclipse will occur only 1.8 days after perigee (on December 12, 2020). The path is similar to the solar eclipse of February 26, 2017. It takes place just 17 months after the solar eclipse of July 2, 2019 and, like the 2019 eclipse, is also visible from Chile and Argentina. It is also a partial solar eclipse in Bolivia, Brazil, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru and Uruguay. Chat Commands: !discord !visibility Chat Rules: 1.
