As seen from Earth, a solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Sun and the Earth and fully or partially blocks the Sun. In a partial eclipse, the Moon and Sun are not exactly in line, and only a portion of the Sun’s disc is blocked. In Los Angeles on October 14, 2023, the Moon covered 78 percent of the Sun’s diameter and 71 percent of the Sun’s area. The next partial solar eclipse visible in Los Angeles will occur on April 8, 2024. If viewing a solar eclipse in person, proper eye protection is ESSENTIAL to shield the eyes from dangerous and blinding solar radiation.
NOTE: While those in Los Angeles saw a partial solar eclipse, an annular solar eclipse was visible in a swath across the U.S. from the Oregon coast to Texas. An annular eclipse occurs when the Moon covers the face of the Sun, but the outer edge of the Sun’s disk is still visible and appears as a single ring of light. It is not safe to view an annular eclipse without proper eye protection.
