Why views of eclipses always manage to captivate skywatchers

An upcoming solar eclipse known as the "Ring of Fire" will occur in the US on October 14, 2023. This rare celestial event allows observers to see the Sun's outer atmosphere, known as the corona. The eclipse will be a partial solar eclipse, where the Moon blocks only a portion of the Sun's light, resulting in a partial darkening of the sky.
