“Annular Eclipse: The Ring of Fire” is copyrighted by Dennis Mammana (Skyscapes). NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteAn annular eclipse, sometimes called a "ring of fire," occurs when the Moon passes directly in front of the Sun but does not completely cover it. This leaves a bright ring of sunlight visible around the Moon's silhouette. This phenomenon was visible from a path across the Pacific Ocean.
