Description
To view a solar eclipse, you have to be in the right place at the right time. They occur only at 'Full Moon' phase and if you happen to be in the umbra or darkest part of the moon's shadow when it passes between the Earth and the Sun, you will see a total eclipse in which the entire face of the Sun is blocked by the disc of the Moon. If the eclipse happens to be a long one, you can expect totality to last at most, about seven minutes. If you are in the penumbra, the light part of the lunar shadow on the Earth, you will see a partial eclipse. And, if you are in neither the umbra nor the penumbra, you won't know anything is happening at all...
