There is no eclipse happening today. The next solar eclipse will be an annular or "ring of fire" solar eclipse on October 14, 2023, and will be visible across North America, Central America, and most of South America. The point of greatest eclipse will occur off the coast of Nicaragua and Costa Rica, and the eclipse will be visible along a path covering parts of the United States, Mexico, and several countries in Central and South America. On the same night that Mars is closest to Earth, there will be a total lunar eclipse, with Earths shadow falling on the full Moon.
