A partial solar eclipse, in which part of the sun is hidden by the moon, was observed on the afternoon of March 26 in Okinawa, where the weather was favorable.

"Partial solar eclipse" is a phenomenon in which when the sun, the moon and the earth are aligned, a part of the sun is hidden by the moon when viewed from the earth.

This time, the closer the observations were to the south, the greater the proportion of the sun hiding. In places such as Singapore, an annular solar eclipse was observed that could hide everything.

In Japan, a partial solar eclipse began after 2:00 pm, and many places were difficult to observe because of the clouds, but in Okinawa, where the weather was good, we could see a partially missing sun In addition, we were able to observe it in the clouds, even in Tokyo.

The sun was most hidden around 3:30 pm, with 36% of the sun in Naha, 27% in Tokyo, and 16% in Sapporo.

The first solar eclipse in Japan has been observed since January, and the next one is June 21 next year.
