The 2023 solar eclipse is passing over the United States this year, giving millions of Americans in the northwest a chance to glimpse a “ring of fire.”
That’s the phrase for a kind of eclipse known as an annular eclipse, where the moon passes in front of the sun but leaves space for a small ring of light to be seen.
