In case you haven’t heard, there will be a total solar eclipse in South America on 14 December 2020. The eclipse will pass across the southern part of South America, slightly further south than the path of the eclipse on 02 July 2019. This year’s eclipse will begin over the Pacific Ocean, and the lunar shadow will enter South America near Lago Budi, Chile, and will end near Las Grutas, Argentina. Outside this path, a partial solar eclipse will be visible in the rest of Chile and Argentina, as well as in Bolivia, Paraguay, Uruguay, and parts of Ecuador, Peru, and Brazil.  >>
