A partial solar eclipse will be visible on Sunday, September 21, marking another notable celestial event less than two weeks after a total lunar eclipse captivated much of the Arab world. Astronomers explain that a solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun during its new moon phase, while lunar eclipses take place at full moon.

The upcoming phenomenon will be observable only from the southern hemisphere, including parts of southern Australia, the Pacific Ocean, and Antarctica. Scientists emphasize that such events demonstrate the precision of the Earth–Moon–Sun system and also assist in confirming the beginnings and endings of lunar months. Experts highlight that eclipses remain valuable opportunities to study celestial mechanics and inspire public interest in astronomy.
