A rare hybrid solar eclipse will occur on April 20 and as per NASA it will be visible to skywatchers in Australia and parts of southeast Asia as it will pass over the Indian and Pacific Oceans.
This solar eclipse is considered to be a rare celestial event as it will appear different from different locations across the globe, the space.com explains. "But this eclipse will be a much rarer celestial event than most, as it will be a hybrid eclipse that appears different from different locations across the globe taking the form of an annular eclipse, a total eclipse, or a partial eclipse," it says on its website. While Papua New Guinea will see 87% of the sun blocked, the French Southern Territories and Marshall Islands will see it almost eclipsed.
