The partial solar eclipse of March 2025 did not disappoint as observers turned their eyes and cameras to the sky.

If that’s too long to wait, two total lunar eclipses are also coming, one in September and another next March. Unlike total solar eclipses, which are visible only along a narrow path on Earth’s surface, total lunar eclipses can be seen by mostly anyone on the night side of the planet.

The partial solar eclipse on March 29, 2025, will be seen from North America, Europe, Russia and parts of Africa.

Weather could be an issue for many, but there are locations that will have a "fair chance" (about 40 to 60 percent) of getting a view of the partial eclipse.

In the United States, the partial solar eclipse will occur at sunrise on Saturday. Here are the key times for cities along the East Coast.

During a partial solar eclipse, the moon passes between the sun and Earth. The moon casts a shadow on Earth and only partly blocks the sun, making it appear like a crescent. Unlike a total solar eclipse, there’s no totality so experts say proper eye protection must be worn the whole time.
