Sequence of images showing a partial solar eclipse unfold as the moon takes a larger and larger "bite" out of the sun.

On Saturday, March 29, 2025, a deep partial solar eclipse will be visible across the Northern Hemisphere. While there will be no totality, during which the moon completely obscures the sun, this eclipse will still be a spectacular sight for millions across Europe, North America and parts of Africa.

A partial solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes between Earth and the sun, blocking a portion of the solar disk from view. It'll look like the moon has taken a "bite" out of the sun.
