    Annular Solar Eclipse of 2021

      Summary Author:  Caitlin Pointer   
      
      Shown above is a photo from last year's annular solar eclipse on June   
      10, 2021, as viewed at sunrise from the  Southern Tier of New York.   
      I got up earlier than usual on this morning to have the chance to   
      photograph this sunrise solar eclipse. In the  Binghamton, New York   
      area, we often have cloudy skies, but luckily on this morning the   
      clouds behaved just long enough to catch the sunrise. This eclipse   
      photo was taken from the upper parking lot at Binghamton University.   
      
      Unlike a total eclipse, an  annular eclipse occurs when the Moon’s   
      disk does not completely cover the Sun. This incompletely coverage is   
      due to the  Moon being farther away in its orbit that its size is   
      smaller than the  Sun’s disk in the sky. As a result, the annular   
      event looks like a dark disk on top of a larger, bright disk. On this   
      day from this area in New York State, we missed out on the  "ring of   
      fire", but we were still able to see the sun rise above the horizon   
      looking more like a  waxing crescent moon.
