The moon’s dark shadow will pass in front of the sun on Tuesday (October 25) during a partial solar eclipse visible from much of Europe, North Africa, the Middle East and western parts of Asia.

The solar eclipse kicks off in the UK at 10:08am BST (9:08am UTC) when month the silhouette will slowly pass over the sun upper left, reaching a maximum at 10:59 a.m., at which point 15% of the Sun’s surface will be covered.

The eclipse will be much more visible further east, where in Russia’s West Siberian Plain, near the city of Nizhnevartovsk, viewers will be able to see the Moon cover 86.2% of the Sun around the time our solar moon sets. In other regions of Eastern Europe and East Asia, such as Finland, Sweden, Norway, and Northwest India, the surface of the Sun will be covered by more than 60%. Iceland, Germany, eastern France, Italy, Greece, Egypt and southwestern India will see a projected eclipse of about 40%.

If you happen to be in any of these parts of the world and want to take a look, be sure to put solar eclipse glasses on your eyes and place solar filters on your camera and telescope lenses to avoid the risk of permanent eye damage.

If you can’t see the eclipse in person, fear not: You can watch it live on a number of websites, including a live eclipse viewing stream over Rome starting at 5:00 a.m. EST (9:00 a.m. UTC) right here in Live Science, where it will be held Virtual telescope project broadcast.

The next eclipse will be a total lunar eclipse on Tuesday, November 8. The eclipse will be visible from North America, parts of South America, Central and East Asia, Australia and New Zealand.
