It is a href=/8301-11386_3-57583608-76/fiery-annular-solar-eclipse-to-be-broadcast-live-on-internet/the second/a -- and final -- eclipse of 2013./ppThis eclipse is especially rare, as it is a hybrid: for just 15 seconds, it will be an annular eclipse, as a ring of fire forms about 620 miles east of Jacksonville, Fla. /ppAfter that, it will transition to a total eclipse, with the moon's shadow sweeping close enough to Earth to cover the sun. /p!--pagebreak--pA partial eclipse will be visible at 6:30 a.m. along the East Coast. In New York and Boston, a large swath of the sun will be covered. Further south, less of the sun will be covered./ppThe eclipse will be full over parts of the Atlantic Ocean and Africa. It will look closest to full over Atlanta and Pittsburgh. /ppIn NASA's a href=http://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/solar.htmlFive Millennium Catalog of Solar Eclipses/a, the space agency says there will be a total of 11,898 solar eclipses in the period that started in 1999 BCE and will go through the year 3000 CE. Just 569 of those are hybrid eclipses. /ppSunday's eclipse will end with a sunset total eclipse over Uganda, Ethiopia, Kenya, and Somalia. /ppIf you decide to catch the eclipse, make sure to wear proper eye protection. Sunglasses aren't sufficient; a safer approach is to use solar eclipse viewing glasses./ppA safer bet might be to watch the Slooh Space Camera's live stream from Kenya, positioned so that it can see the full eclipse. /pp/ppiThis story originally appeared on a href=http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-205_162-57610430/solar-eclipse-will-be-visible-from-east-coast/CBSNews.com/a./i/p/div/divbrbrcentera href=http://www.wizardrss.comPowered By WizardRSS.com/a | a href=http://www.wizardrss.comFull Text RSS Feed/a | a href=http://www.amazon.com/RFID-Blocking-Cards-Identity-Protector/dp/B00CJHZLEWRFID/a | a href=http://www.wpzonbuilder.comAmazon Affiliate/a/center
