NASA has taken to its blog and social channels to announce the date of the first solar eclipse of 2022 and where it can be seen. A partial solar eclipse is set to round out the month of April, and though the sight won t be visible from most of the world, there are still ways to see it. According to NASA, the partial solar eclipse on the evening of April 30 can be spotted amid clear skies in Chile, Argentina, most of Uruguay, western Paraguay, southwestern Bolivia, southeastern Peru and a small area of southwestern Brazil. Along parts of the northwestern coastline of Antarctica, in the Atlantic Ocean off the southeastern coast of South America, including the Falkland Islands, and in much of the South Pacific Ocean and Southern Ocean, the eclipse will also be visible. "A solar eclipse happens when the Moon moves between the Sun and Earth, casting a shadow on Earth, fully or partially blocking the Sun’s light in some areas. During a partial eclipse, the Moon and Sun are not perfectly aligned, so the Moon does not completely cover the Sun. This gives the Sun a crescent shape, or makes it appear as if a bite has been taken out of the Sun, depending on how much of the Sun is covered by the Moon," NASA said on its website. Timeanddate.com will carry a free livestream of the partial eclipse next weekend here. https://www.timeanddate.com/live/
