The deep partial solar eclipse of October 25, 2022, is visible from most of Europe, northern Africa, the Middle East and western parts of Asia. Watch online via the video above.

When and where to watch: A partial solar eclipse will sweep across Europe, west Asia, northeast Africa, and the Middle East on October 25, 2022. The partial eclipse will begin at 8:58 UTC (4:58 a.m. ET) and end at 13:02 UTC (9:02 a.m. ET). The instant of the greatest eclipse takes place at 11 UTC (7 a.m. ET).

Maximum eclipse: At a maximum eclipse, the sun is 0.86189 percent covered by the moon. That’s a very deep eclipse! If you’re in the eclipse viewing area, as greatest eclipse approaches, watch for little crescent suns dancing beneath tree leaves.

How to watch online. The Royal Observatory in Greenwich England – home of the prime meridian (Earth’s zero point in longitude) – will be live-streaming the partial solar eclipse via the Annie Maunder Astrographic Telescope. The livestream is presented by astronomer Jake Foster. Watch via the livestream above.
