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.

The primary source of all the information on eclipses presented here at Hermit Eclipse. (NASA Goddard Space flight Center)
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).
