Here's some great news for sky gazers and astrologers! The year 2022 will witness four lunar eclipses and two solar eclipses. Out of these, the first solar eclipse (also called Surya Grahan in the Hindi language) of the year 2022 is expected to take place on the last day of this month, i.e. on April 30 this year. "A solar eclipse occurs when a portion of the Earth is engulfed in a shadow cast by the Moon which fully or partially blocks sunlight. This occurs when the Sun, Moon, and Earth are aligned. Such alignment coincides with a new moon indicating the Moon is closest to the ecliptic plane," according to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).
NASA has shared a few details of the upcoming solar eclipse on April 30, 2022. If you want to know more about this event, then read on to know more!
