This celestial event is called a solar eclipse. Let me tell you about it so you can understand all this.
A solar eclipse is caused by the moon, that is me, I pass in between the sun and the earth till black is what you see.
There are several stages and some visual tips that you can use to recognize a total solar eclipse.
Stage 1 is called a Partial Eclipse. It's when the sun's disk is partially blocked by the moon like this.
Stage 2 is called Bailey's Beads which are bright spots of light. It's when low-lying valleys on the moon's edge are allowing sunlight through. That's right.
Stage 3 is sometimes called the Diamond Ring. This stage is key in which marks the last few seconds before totality.
The last bit of sunlight that is able to shine through the low-lying valleys.
Creates a single flash of light on the side of the moon.
The 4th and most important stage is called totality.
When the moon completely covers the disk of the sun, this is what you see.
Then comes the final stages in which the sun will grow a crescent on the opposite side of the Baily's Beads which once had shone.
