The annular solar eclipse is set to take place Saturday, Oct, 14, according to NASA.
All lower 48 states will be able to view part of the eclipse which, according to the space agency, takes place when the moon passes between Earth and the sun, but the moon is at the furthest point away from Earth in its orbit. When it's further away, the moon isn't able to completely cover the sun, creating the 'ring of fire'.
The full annular solar eclipse officially starts in Oregon at 9:13 a.m. PDT and ends in Texas at 12:03 p.m. CDT.
