Want to watch a “ring of fire” annular solar eclipse live stream on YouTube? On Saturday, October 14, 2023 the moon will pass between the sun and Earth while near its farthest point from Earth.
It won’t completely cover the sun, instead creating a “ring of fire” for over four minutes—but only as seen from a narrow 125 miles wide path stretching from Oregon through Texas.
Everyone outside that path in North, Central and South America (save for Alaska and the tip of South America) will see a partial solar eclipse of varying magnitude. Solar eclipse glasses are essential for everyone.
However, if clear skies are lacking where you are—or you’re on the day-side of the planet where the eclipse won’t be visible (Europe and Africa)—there are plenty of places to follow the “ring of fire” annular solar eclipse in real-time online.
When Is The ‘Ring Of Fire’ Annular Solar Eclipse?
The eclipse begins on October 14 at 15:03 UTC (11:03 a.m. EDT), with the first location to see the full eclipse at 16:10 UTC (12:10 p.m. EDT), according to Timeanddate.com. The “ring of fire” will be visible over the U.S. for 45 mins and 8 seconds. It will then be seen from Central and South America.
Though the best times to watch will be specific to the locations the eclipse is broadcast from, all of them will likely take feeds from wherever they can as soon as they can—so it’s wise to be watching from the beginning of the broadcasts.
Where To Live Stream The ‘Ring Of Fire’ Annular Solar Eclipse
Sadly there are a lot of fake feeds and disreputable YouTube channels re-broadcasting feeds of old eclipses.
I’ve vetted all of these YouTube channels during eclipses in recent years, all of which come from reputable sources including astronomers, observatories and dedicated eclipse enthusiasts. Some of the brands speak for themselves, but some may not be known to you. All will provide excellent and, in some cases, exclusive views of the eclipse.
One of the most reliable live streams for all kinds of eclipses is Timeanddate.com, which will show live views of the entire event from its mobile observatory. It will also take live feeds and images from astronomers and provide an expert commentary to the entire event.
Announced on X by NASA way back in August, NASA TV will be live streaming the eclipse from Albuquerque, New Mexico and Kerrville, Texas. You can visit the link right now to watch a trailer for the event.
Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff, Arizona, is making a name for itself in the world of live stream astronomy—and eclipses in particular. In advance of its live ticketed 2024 Eclipse Over Texas in Waco for April 8, 2024’s total solar eclipse comes with live broadcast from New Mexico State University’s Sunspot Solar Observatory. Partial solar eclipse views will also come from Lowell’s own Giovale Open Deck Observatory, which is just south of the path.
Robotic telescope service Slooh—which live streams the cosmos via a web browser– will broadcast a live Star Party from 11:00 a.m. EDT on October 14 with expert commentary and live telescope views of the eclipse.
San Francisco-based museum Exploratorium often works with NASA to send expeditions to sites around the world to live stream solar eclipses. For the annular solar eclipse it will be broadcasting live telescope views of the eclipse from the path of annularity in both Ely, Nevada (08:00 a.m. PDT) and the Valley of the Gods, Utah (09:00 a.m. PDT).
It will also broadcast in Spanish and with sonification (an auditory composition to expresses how much light is coming from the sun, created in real time using data streamed from Exploratorium video crews as they film the eclipse).
