A PARTIAL solar eclipse is set to grace skies across Scotland next week as the moon passes between the earth and the sun.
On Tuesday morning, skygazers across the country will be able to see nearly a sixth of the sun being blocked out by the moon, with those in the north expected to enjoy good views.
Dr Robert Massey, of the Royal Astronomical Society, said the phenomenon will cause the moon to block the view of “some or all of the bright solar surface”, and the sun will “appear to have a bite taken out of it”.
