An annular, ring of fire solar eclipse occurs when the Moon is at one of its farthest positions from Earth. The Moon’s relative size does not cover the Sun completely when viewed from Earth. The June 21 solar eclipse will start at 9:15 AM IST and will go on until 3:04 PM IST. The maximum eclipse will take place at 12:10 IST.
