It's a Solar Eclipse - Saturday, October 14th 10:36 am
Saturday, October 14th, an annular eclipse will be visible in New Mexico. In the morning, the moon will cover the face of the Sun so that the Sun appears in the sky as a single ring of light, known as the ring of fire.
The path of the annual solar eclipse is passing directly over Albuquerque at 10:36 am. In Santa Fe, we are on the outer edge. The closer you are to the center of the path, the longer annularity, the maximum point of the eclipse, will last. The event will take about three hours, but the annularity will only last about five minutes.

Never view the Sun with the naked eye or look through unfiltered optical devices such as binoculars or telescopes!
