 On Sunday, November 3, 2013, there will be a hybrid solar eclipse. That is, the eclipse appears fleetingly as an annular – or ring eclipse – at its start in the Atlantic Ocean and becomes a brief total eclipse later on. Along the long yet narrow central eclipse path, one can see the total eclipse, but much of the world outside that exclusive path will see a partial eclipse on Sunday. The partial eclipse will be visible from far-eastern North America, the Caribbean, northern South America, southern Greenland, the Atlantic Ocean, southern Europe, Africa, Madagascar and the Middle East. Keep in mind that you’ll absolutely need proper eye protection to watch this or any solar eclipse. Please use caution to prevent blindness or severe eye injury! 
 
 No matter where you reside within the eclipse viewing area, the solar eclipse will take place sometime between sunrise and sunset on Sunday, November 3, 2013. 
 
 IMPORTANT: This eclipse happens early on Sunday, according to U.S. clocks! Online coverage begins at 1045 UTC (4:45 a.m. CST) on November 3. Also remember, for us in the U.S., Daylight Saving Time ends November 3.

 How to watch the November 3 total solar eclipse online. 
 
 Eastern North America sees a partial solar eclipse beginning at sunrise November 3. To see this eclipse from Earth’s western hemisphere, you’ll need to be in far-eastern North America, the Caribbean and the northwestern tip of South America. From those locations, the eclipse will be seen as a very shallow (and shrinking) partial solar eclipse. It may – or may not – be perceptible as the sun rises on November 3, depending on the clarity of your eastern sky. Photographers with good sky conditions might capture some wonderful photos. 
 
 Seen from further west in the U.S. and Canada, the sun will rise with the eclipse nearly over. Assuming you have a flat horizon and good sky conditions, the western limit of the event’s visibility runs through southern Ontario, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, and the Florida Panhandle. 
 
 Any further west in North America … sorry. No eclipse for you. Watch online. 
 
 We give the local times of the eclipse for chosen cities from as far north as Montreal, Canada, and as far south as Cartagena, Colombia. If your locality isn’t mentioned, you can find out if the eclipse is visible in your area, and at what times, by using an eclipse calculator. 
 
 If the eclipse is visible for you, be sure to find an unobstructed horizon in the direction of sunrise, for the eclipsed sun will be hovering very close the horizon. Remember to use eye protection!

 Equatorial Africa views short-lived total solar eclipse in afternoon hours November 3. Well over 99.9% of the eclipse viewing area will see varying degrees of a partial solar eclipse. On land, a total solar eclipse will be visible along a very narrow track in equatorial Africa (Gabon, Congo, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Uganda, Kenya, Ethiopia and Somalia) sometime during the afternoon hours on Sunday, November 3. At best, the total eclipse will last somewhat more than one minute (in western Gabon).

 Either of the two eclipse calculators listed below will enable you to compute the eclipse times for your locality. The U.S. Naval Observatory gives the eclipse times in Universal Time, so you need to convert to local time. The eclipse calculator from timeanddate.com gives the times in local time, so no time conversion is necessary.

 Bottom line: November 3, 2013 will bring a special kind of eclipse, a hybrid solar eclipse. That is, the eclipse will be an annular or ring eclipse at its start and a total eclipse, briefly, later on. Elsewhere, this eclipse will be partial. Be sure to protect your eyes! Time tips and times in this post.

 Eye safety during solar eclipses 
 
 When is the next total solar eclipse in the U.S.? ||||| A partial solar eclipse shines in the skies over Manila Bay in the Philippines in January 2009. Observers on the U.S. East Coast could see something like this if they have a clear view to the eastern horizon at sunrise on Sunday. A total eclipse could be seen along a narrow strip of the planet passing over the Atlantic and Africa. Aaron Favila 
 
 Got eclipse glasses? If you're on the East Coast of the U.S., you might want to get 'em — so you can try catching a glimpse of a solar eclipse at sunrise on Sunday. 
 
 And no matter where you are, you'll want to be watching the Web as well — so you can catch the show when it's totally at its best. 
 
 Sunday's eclipse is a strange one, known as a hybrid. Millions of observers on the eastern edge of the America, in southern Europe and nearly all of Africa have the potential to see a partial eclipse. Over a narrow strip of the western Atlantic, there'll be an annular eclipse, with a tiny portion of the sun's disk remaining visible as a "ring of fire." But as time goes on, the eclipse will turn total: Skywatchers along a thin band of African territory, stretching from Gabon to Somalia, could see a completely blacked-out sun. 
 
 Only 5 percent of all eclipses are annular-total hybrids. The most recent one occurred back in 2005. All solar eclipses involve the moon getting right in front of the sun and casting its shadow on our planet. But here's why Sunday's hybrid eclipse is special: During the course of the day, the moon's distance from the spot where its shadow falls on Earth changes just enough to make the transition from leaving some of the sun exposed, to covering up the entire disk. 
 
 For detailed information about the eclipse's track, check out Eclipse-maps.com, NASA's eclipse website and this interactive eclipse map from Xavier Jubier. 
 
 The partial phase of Sunday's solar eclipse can be seen over a wide swath of the world, but the annular-total phase is visible only along a narrow track. The eclipse begins as a "ring of fire" annular event, but turns total by the time the moon's shadow reaches the African coast. 
 
 In the partial eclipse zone 
 
 For East Coasters and others in the partial-eclipse zone, here's the important thing: Don't gaze at the sun without proper eye protection. 
 
 
 
 You can buy special eclipse-viewing filters at planetariums or science centers. You can look through No. 14 welding glass. You can make a "pinhole camera," hold out a colander or knit your fingers together to create projected images of the crescent sun. You can hook up with a local astronomy club that has the proper viewing gear. But trying to see a partial solar eclipse with unprotected eyes will just lead to vision problems. 
 
 Technically speaking, the partial eclipse could be visible as far inland as, say, Tennessee. Sky & Telescope projects that 57 percent of the sun's diameter could be covered over at sunrise in Boston, 48 percent in New York, 44 percent in Philadelphia, 35 percent in Washington, and 36 percent in Miami. But you'd have to have a clear view of a flat horizon — and no matter where you are on the East Coast, the partial eclipse will be over within an hour after sunrise. (Use this TimeandDate.com calculator to find out when the sun rises in your locale, and remember that daylight saving time ends on Saturday night.) 
 
 Watching it online 
 
 All these issues about logistics and safety go away if you're watching the eclipse online. And unless you're in Africa, the only way you'll see totality in real time is via the Web. 
 
 Totality is well worth witnessing: When the sun's disk is fully covered, the delicate outer solar atmosphere — known as the corona — can be seen gleaming against the black sky. The total phase will be relatively short on Sunday, lasting somewhere between a second and a minute or so. 
 
 The Slooh virtual observatory plans to broadcast video feeds from telescopes in Gabon, Kenya and the Canary Islands. Slooh's host and technical officer, Paul Cox, has joined an expedition to Kenya and will be participating in three and a half hours of live coverage beginning at 6:45 a.m. ET Sunday. You can also watch the show via Slooh's iPad app. 
 
 “This will be the most difficult eclipse we’ve covered at Slooh over the years," Cox said in a news release. "Our expedition will be made in a series of 4x4 vehicles carrying our delicate observation equipment across some of the harshest terrain in Africa. After three days across country, we’ll be setting up camp near the home of the largest population of crocodiles in the world — Lake Turkana." 
 
 Slooh's show will feature commentary from Cox as well as astronomer Bob Berman, documentary filmmaker Duncan Copp and other guests. Viewers can email questions in advance to coxy@slooh.com, or tweet questions to the panel during the broadcast using the Twitter hashtag #solareclipse. The eclipse should reach totality at Lake Turkana around 9:25 a.m. ET. 
 
 Another expedition is setting up on the shores of Lake Turkana with backing from BRCK, an African venture that produces Internet connectivity devices. BRCK's team members are planning an eclipse webcast, and they're already posting updates on the operation to Twitter, Flickr, Instagram and the Web. 
 
 More TV coverage may be available via Gabonese television, Kenya's KTN or other African outlets. And after the eclipse is over, there should be lots of great images to see on SpaceWeather.com. Did you snap a picture? Share it with us via the NBC News Facebook page or tweet it with the hashtag #NBCeclipse.

The final eclipse of 2013 occurs this coming weekend on Sunday, November 3rd. This will be the fifth eclipse overall, and the second solar eclipse of 2013. This will also be the only eclipse this year that features a glimpse of totality. 
 
 This eclipse is of the rare hybrid variety— that is, it will be an annular eclipse along the very first 15 seconds of its track before transitioning to a total as the Moon’s shadow sweeps just close enough to the Earth to cover the disk of the Sun along the remainder of its track. 
 
 How rare are hybrid solar eclipse? Of the 11,898 solar eclipses listed over a 5,000 year span from 1999 BC to 3000 AD in Fred Espenak’s Five Millennium Catalog of Solar Eclipses, only 569, or 4.8% are hybrids. 
 
 Who can see this eclipse? 
 
 People from northern South America, across the U.S. Eastern Seaboard and up through the Canadian Maritimes will see a brief partial solar eclipse finishing up around 30 minutes after local sunrise. The brief annular “ring of fire” portion of the eclipse begins at sunrise just ~1,000 kilometres east of Jacksonville, Florida, as it races eastward across the Atlantic. See our timeline, below. 
 
 Nearly all of Africa and the southern Mediterranean region including Spain will see partial phases of the eclipse, while greatest totality occurs just off of the coast of Liberia and heads for first landfall on the African continent over Wonga Wongue Reserve in Gabon. At this point, the duration of totality will already have shrunk back down to 1 minute and 7 seconds. The shadow of the Moon will then cross central Africa, headed for a short but brilliant sunset total eclipse over Uganda, Ethiopia, Kenya and Somalia. 
 
 This particular eclipse part of saros series 143 and is member 23 of the 72 eclipses in the cycle. The first eclipse in this saros occurred on March 7th, 1617, and the last one will occur on April 23rd, 2897. 
 
 Saros 143 also has a checkered place in eclipse history. The last eclipse in this series crossed south eastern Asia on October 24th, 1995. 
 
 The first detailed picture of a solar eclipse was also taken of a saros 143 member on July 28, 1851. And one saros later, a total solar eclipse on August 7th, 1869 may have saved the butt of astronomer and explorer George Davidson while traversing the wilds of Alaska. And one more saros period later, Dmitri Mendeleev (he of the modern periodic table) observed the total solar eclipse of August 19th, 1887 from a balloon. 
 
 We’ve compiled a brief worldwide timeline for the November 3rd hybrid eclipse. Keep in mind, the shift back off of Daylight Saving Time occurs on the same morning as the eclipse for North America, putting the U.S. East Coast once again back to -5 hours off of Universal Time (UT): 
 
 10:04 UT: The partial phases of the eclipse begin. 
 
 11:05:17 UT: annular phases of the eclipse begin. 
 
 11:05:36 UT: The eclipse transitions from an annular to a total along its track. 
 
 12:46: The point of greatest eclipse, occurring off of the SW coast of Liberia along the coast of Africa. The path will be 57 kilometres wide at this point with a maximum duration for totality at 1 minute & 40 seconds. 
 
 14:27 UT: The total phases of the eclipse end. 
 
 15:28 UT: Partial phases end. 
 
 Remember that solar safety is paramount while observing an eclipse during all partial phases. This is especially critical, as millions of viewers along the U.S. East Coast are poised to catch the eclipse at sunrise over the Atlantic on Sunday. Use only glasses designed specifically for eclipse viewing or welder’s glass #14. One project headed by Astronomers Without Borders is also working to provide eclipse glasses to schools in Africa. 
 
 Projecting the Sun onto a wall or a piece of paper is also a safe method to observe the eclipse. Construction of a Sun Gun, a pinhole projector, or even using a spaghetti strainer or colander to project the partially eclipsed sun are all fun projects to try. 
 
 Shooting pictures of the rising eclipse is also possible using a DSLR. To capture the disk of the Sun plus an outline of the foreground, you’ll want to use a combination of low ISO 100 and a fast shutter speed (1/4000 or faster) and a zoom lens of at least 200mm or greater. Keep in mind, DO NOT look at the Sun through the camera’s view finder— simply set the focus to infinity and aim via projection. It’s worth practicing your technique a morning or two prior to the main event! 
 
 As the partial phase of the eclipse progresses, keep an eye out for “tiny crescents” that may litter the ground. These are caused by gaps in things such as leaves, latticework, etc that may act as natural “pinhole projectors”. Those lucky enough to stand in the path of totality may snare a look at shadow bands sweeping across the landscape as totality approaches, as well as catch a brief glimpse of Baily’s Beads and the pearly white corona of the Sun. 
 
 Totality will last less than a minute across most of central Africa, giving viewers a very hurried view before partial phases commence once more. Venus will be easily visible at magnitude -4.4 just 47 degrees east of the Sun. Unfortunately, prospects aren’t great for air or seaborne viewers in the mid-Atlantic to catch sight of comet ISON during the frenzied moments of totality, which will sit 50 degrees from the Sun between magnitude +7 & +8. 
 
 Weather prospects are an all-important consideration when planning for an eclipse. Jay Anderson maintains an outstanding site with projections tailor-made for each eclipse. For the U.S. East Coast, clear skies right down to the crucial eastern horizon will be key! 
 
 A recent surge in piracy off of the West Coast of Africa may also factor into travel considerations for eclipse chasers. You can actually monitor such activities on the high seas now in near real time. Perhaps one could take a page from Mark Twain’s A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court, and impress any would-be-brigands with the glory of an impending solar eclipse… 
 
 Unfortunately, the International Space Station will have an orbit nearly perpendicular to the Earth-Moon-Sun syzygy, and won’t lend itself to any great prospects of a transit during the partial phases of the eclipse. ESA’s Proba-2 and JAXA’s Hinode will, however, see several partial eclipses from orbit: 
 
 Sunspot activity has also been on the upswing as of late, making for a photogenic Sun heading into the partial phases of the eclipse. A well-placed, naked eye Coronal Mass Ejection on the solar limb also isn’t out of the question. Eclipse historian and expert Michael Zeiler notes that a CME last occurred during a total solar eclipse way back in 1860. 
 
 Totality for this eclipse passes over some wild and largely wifi free areas; few plans to broadcast the eclipse live have surfaced thus far. 
 
 Slooh plans a broadcast, as did a proposed Indiegogo project whose current status is unclear. BRCK also plans to broadcast the eclipse live from the shores of Lake Turkana, Kenya. Got plans to webcast even the partial phases of the eclipse? Let us know! 
 
 And speaking of eclipse chasing, we plan on heading to the Florida Space Coast Sunday morning at o’dark thirty to nab the partial sunrise eclipse over the Atlantic. 
 
 And as always, the question posed immediately after totality is: when’s the next one? Well, the next annular eclipse graces Australia on April 29th, 2014. The U.S. will also see a partial solar eclipse on October 23rd next year… but totality will not touch the surface of our fair planet until a high Arctic eclipse on March 20th, 2015. 
 
 Good luck, clear skies, and safe journeys to all who are chasing after this one near and far, and don’t forget to post those pics to Universe Today’s Flickr page!

 2013 eclipse, annular eclipse, eclipse glasses, eclipse safety, eclipses 2013, hybrid eclipse, november 3, november eclipse, ring of fire eclipse, solar eclipse, sunrise eclipse, total solar eclipse, when is the next solar eclipse
– East Coasters, this might be the best use of that extra hour you'll gain overnight by setting the clocks back: Get up at sunrise and check out the sky. (NBC News advises how to do so safely.) Weather permitting, you'll be treated to a solar eclipse. This one is what's known as a hybrid solar eclipse: "That is, the eclipse appears fleetingly as an annular—or ring eclipse—at its start in the Atlantic Ocean and becomes a brief total eclipse later on," explains EarthSky. Those on the East Coast can expect to see it as a partial eclipse. (You can dig into worldwide viewing maps at Universe Today, or plan to watch online coverage here.)
