Total solar eclipse. Artwork of the total solar eclipse over Zambia, Africa, on 21 June 2001. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes in front of the Sun, casting its shadow across the Earth. During a total solar eclipse, parts of the Sun's atmosphere become visible. Here, the white glow of the corona is seen forming a halo around the Moon.
