See it on NASA's siteA hole crossed the Sun for a few minutes this month, as seen across a thin swath of planet Earth. The event on January 15 was an annular solar eclipse, and the hole was really Earth's Moon. The Moon was too far from Earth to create a total solar eclipse, but instead left well placed observers with a bright surrounding circle called the ring of fire.
