A Phenomenon More Visible to the West
Get ready to see the sun partially gnawed by our natural satellite very soon! This phenomenon will be visible from North Africa, North America, and Europe. France will get to enjoy this fabulous spectacle, but not all parts of the Hexagon will be equally lucky. According to Gilles Dawidowicz, vice-president of the Astronomical Society of France, in an interview with actu.fr, “ to see more of the eclipsed solar surface, it’s better to be in the west than in the east or the south ». In Paris, 23.5% of the sun's surface will be hidden due to... and the eclipse, he specifies. The phenomenon is set to begin at 9:50 AM, end at 1:43 PM, and last 3 hours 52 minutes and 59 seconds.
