Will Pakistan See Hybrid Solar Eclipse?
A rare hybrid solar eclipse, the first of the year, will grace the sky on April 20, 2023, in a highly awaited celestial event.
Although Pakistanis will miss out on this beautiful astronomical event, viewers in the Pacific and Indian Ocean areas, as well as East Timor, Western Australia, and eastern Indonesia, are anticipated to enjoy it.
Hybrid solar eclipses are extremely rare, and this one is no exception. With just a few occurring every century, this one is likely to leave an indelible impression on astronomy enthusiasts.
According to predictions, the solar eclipse will last five hours and twenty-four minutes, giving viewers plenty of time to catch a glimpse of the moon’s shadows as it moves across the sun.
There will be a shift from a total to an annular eclipse throughout the event, resulting in some locations seeing the moon fully obscure the sun and others seeing a ring of light around the shadow’s perimeter.
While the eclipse is likely to be spectacular, viewers in Pakistan and India will not be able to observe even a partial hybrid solar eclipse. But this awe-inspiring event will no doubt leave many people throughout the world speechless.
