Rare Solar Eclipse Coming April 29

The solar eclipse set to occur April 29 will only be seen by an exclusive group.
Only those in Australia and parts of Antarctica will see Tuesday's annular solar eclipse, which will transform the sun into a ring of fire, according to Space.com.
This eclipse will be an annular eclipse because the moon will be close to its furthest distance from Earth, making it too small to create a total eclipse. So instead of a brilliant blackout of the sun, people who view the eclipse will see a reddish-yellow ring around the moon.
This eclipse is rare because the center of the moon's shadow, known as the antumbra, will barely miss the Earth, passing just above Antarctica, Universe Today reports. Out of nearly 4,000 annular eclipses occurring in a 5,000-year period, only 1.7 percent will be like the one occurring April 29.
