The journey of the moon over the sun for centuries has fascinated people and transformed bright daylight into an incredible twilight. Such celestial events show the gentle alignment of the Earth, the Moon and the Sun and remind us of the accuracy of our universe.
In September 2025, Skywatchers will witness the last eclipse of the year. It will be a partial eclipse where the moon covers part of the sun in some regions. Unfortunately, timing places it under the horizon for India, which means that the country will not see it. Instead, the best views of the southern hemisphere, including East Australia, New Zealand and Antarctica.

Why is this called “partial solar eclipse”?
The solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes directly between the ground and the sun. Depending on the alignment, the eclipse may be overall, annular, hybrid or partial.
In September 2025, the shadow of the moon will fully cover the sun. Penumbra observers – a lighter part of the shadow – will see the sun that appears as if it was eliminated a “bite”, which created a partial eclipse of the effect.
