The only total solar eclipse of 2020 is happening tonight, offering stargazers in South America what NASA regards as ‘one of nature’s most awe-inspiring sights’.
This path of totality – where the moon completely covers the sun, revealing the sun’s tenuous atmosphere, or ‘corona’ – will reportedly stretch from Saavedra, Chile to Salina del Eje, Argentina.

Those looking to the skies outside of this path in Southern Chile and Argentina will still be able to see a partial solar eclipse, whereby the moon partially covers the sun’s disk.
