Partial Eclipse

[CT4013]

A partial solar eclipse will be visible across the UK on 12 August, marking the most complete eclipse seen since 1999.
The moon will block most of the sun's light, with about 90 per cent coverage in London and 95 per cent in the South West – the best place in the UK to view the eclipse.
The eclipse begins with 'first contact' (when the moon begins to cover the sun) just after 6pm, with the peak occuring just after 7pm; the eclipse will end just after 8pm.
