Published: September 20, 2025 • Nice Day • 4 min read

A partial solar eclipse will occur on September 21, 2025. The celestial event will be visible across parts of the Southern Hemisphere, but not from India.

🌍 Where will it be visible?

The eclipse will be seen in:

• Australia
• New Zealand
• Antarctica
• Parts of South America

Large portions of the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans will also experience the partial eclipse.

🕑 Timings (UTC & IST)

• Starts: 17:40 UTC (10:59 PM IST)
• Maximum: ~19:30 UTC (1:00 AM IST)
• Ends: ~21:00 UTC (2:30 AM IST)

Since this happens after sunset in India, it will not be visible from the subcontinent.

🔬 Why it matters

• Solar eclipses help astronomers study the Sun’s corona.
• They raise awareness about safe skywatching practices.
• They bring people worldwide together under one sky.

🛡️ Safe viewing tips

Never look at the Sun directly. Use ISO 12312-2 certified eclipse glasses, a solar filter, or projection methods.

📌 What’s next for India?

The next total solar eclipse visible from India will occur on August 12, 2026. Mark your calendars!
