A hybrid eclipse of the Sun occurs on Thursday 25 November, 2049 UT, with maximum eclipse at 05:32 UT. A fleeting hybrid eclipse will cover a narrow path at most 21 km wide and last for 38 seconds at the point of maximum eclipse.

The hybrid eclipse lasts for 38 seconds. Maximum eclipse is at 05:32:15 UT.

During this eclipse the Sun will be 0.540° in apparent diameter, 1.3% larger than average. The Moon will be just 3 days before perigee, making it relatively large. At the start and end of the eclipse, the Moon will be 0.534°, which is smaller than the Sun; hence the eclipse will be annular at that point. However, at maximum eclipse the Moon will be 0.543° in apparent diameter, which is 2.3% larger than average, large enough to cover the Sun; and so a total eclipse will be seen at that point. Thus this is a hybrid eclipse. The statistics page has information on the ranges of the sizes of the Sun and Moon, and the Moon data page displays detailed information on the Moon's key dates.

Interactive Map

This map shows the visibility of the eclipse. The area shaded blue will see a total eclipse, and the areas shaded red will see an annular eclipse; however, near the edges of each area, the eclipse will be very short. The bold line shows the centre of the path, where the eclipse will last longest, so this is where you want to be if possible.

Use the zoom controls to zoom in and out; hover your mouse over any point on the centreline to see the time and duration of the eclipse at that point. You can pan and zoom the map to see detail for any part of the eclipse path.

The interactive map is currently not available.

Note that while all dates and times on this site (except where noted) are in UT, which is within a second of civil time, the dates and times shown in NASA's eclipse listingsGSFC Eclipse Web Site

are in the TDT timescale.

The Sun and Moon distances are shown in km, and as a percentage of their minimum - maximum distances; hence 0% is the closest possible (Earth's perihelion, or the Moon's closest possible perigee) and 100% is the farthest (aphelion, the farthest apogee). The statistics page has information on the ranges of sizes of the Sun and Moon, and the Moon data page displays detailed information on the Moon's key dates.
