The last solar eclipse of 2019, a so-called "ring of fire" eclipse, occurs Thursday (Dec. 26) and should thrill skywatchers lucky enough to see it in the Eastern Hemisphere. But if you don't live in a place where it's visible, don't worry. You can watch it live online today, Dec. 25, like a cosmic Christmas gift.

The Dec. 26 solar eclipse will be an annular solar eclipse, in which the moon does not completely cover the sun as it transits across the star's face. From the Earth, where the eclipse is visible, this leaves a brilliant ring of light around the moon in what observers call a "ring of fire." IMPORTANT: Be sure to wear proper eye protection like eclipse glasses if you observe the eclipse in person! 

 

You'll be able to watch the solar eclipse on Space.com, courtesy of Slooh, beginning at 10 p.m. EST tonight, Dec. 25 (0300 GMT). You'll be able to watch it directly from Slooh.com here
