The first solar eclipse of the year will occur on Saturday, April 30, coinciding with the second new moon, known as the Black Moon.

Solar eclipses occur when the Moon comes in line between the Sun and the Earth and casts a shadow on our planet. However, this eclipse will only be partial.

Also, the eclipse will be visible only to residents in certain regions of the Earth. Unfortunately, Ukraine was not included in this list.

It will only be visible over parts of Antarctica, South America, the Pacific and Atlantic oceans.
