A partial solar eclipse is a rare event that occurs when the moon comes between the sun and earth. As the name suggests, the moon only partially covers the sun’s disk.
The celestial spectacle is expected to start at 2.42pm and end at 4.54pm. You can catch the maximum eclipse at 3.52pm local time.
According to the DAG, one must not observe the solar eclipse without proper eye protection as it can cause “permanent damage” to the eyes.
Viewers need to buy solar eclipse glasses. The sun will appear in a natural orange colour when viewed through this filter.
The DAG is hosting a paid event at Al Thuraya Astronomy Centre in Mushrif Park on October 25. The event will include an explanation of the spectacle, telescopes to observe and capture the eclipse, and solar eclipse glasses.
Ticket prices start from Dh30 per person.
