The only annular eclipse in the world this year
If the weather is fine, shortly after sunset, the interested public will face the southwest low altitude, and will see the shining Venus inlaid on the sky curtain like a jewel. About 2 degrees above the right of Venus is Saturn, which has the reputation of "Lord of the rings". It is rare to see two big planets so close. Because Saturn is not as bright as Venus, it is best to use binoculars.

Annular eclipse
The world's only annular eclipse this year will be staged on December 26. The central part of the sun is dark when the annular eclipse occurs, and the edge is still bright, forming a beautiful halo.
The next annular eclipse began in the Middle East and ended in the Western Pacific Ocean. Although there is no chance to see the "golden ring eclipse", partial solar eclipse can be observed all over China, and the more southerly the eclipse points (the larger the sun's diameter is covered by the moon), the more wonderful it is.

The annular eclipse is a kind of solar eclipse. When it happens, the sun's central part is dark and its edge is still bright, forming a halo. This is because the moon is between the sun and the earth, but it is far away from the earth and cannot completely cover the sun.
Partial solar eclipse is also a kind of solar eclipse. When the moon moves between the earth and the sun, and the earth moves to the penumbra of the moon, part of the earth is covered by the penumbra outside the moon shadow, and part of the sun seen in this area will be blocked by the moon. This astronomical phenomenon is called partial solar eclipse.

As the most beautiful scene of "the fairy tale of stars and moon" in the planetary combination moon, Venus will appear in the sky on the evening of December 29, reflecting the beautiful sky, becoming a beautiful scenery line in the southwest sky.
