The first solar eclipse of 2026 will be a annular solar eclipse on Feb. 17. The downside for most of us is that the stunning 'ring of fire' will be witnessed by very few people.

 

Stretching 2,661 miles (4,282 kilometers) long and 383 miles (616 km) wide, the path of annularity — where the 'ring of fire' will be visible — cuts across western Antarctica and skims the Davis Sea coast of the Southern Ocean.

 

Many more people will, however, be able to witness the partial phase of the solar eclipse. This stage will be visible across Antarctica, southeastern Africa, the southern tip of South America, and over parts of the Pacific, Indian, Atlantic and Southern oceans.
