“Solar Eclipse” is copyrighted by Fred Espenak. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteOn April 20, 2023, the shadow of a New Moon raced across Earth's southern hemisphere. The Moon in silhouette created a hybrid solar eclipse. Hybrid eclipses are rare and can be seen as either a total or an annular "ring of fire" eclipse depending on the observer's position. Viewers of this much-anticipated event witnessed a total solar eclipse while anchored in the Indian Ocean.
