Annular Solar Eclipse Broadcast Packages
Watch NASA's live broadcast as a “ring of fire” eclipse travels across the United States on Oct. 14, 2023, from Oregon to Texas.
This event occurs when the Moon passes directly in front of the Sun, but appears too small to completely cover the Sun’s surface – resulting in what appears as a ring of fire in the sky. It’s also known as an annular solar eclipse. Everyone in the contiguous 48 states had the opportunity to see at least a partial eclipse on Oct. 14, 2023.
Below is the collection of packages created for NASA's annular eclipse broadcast.
