An annular solar eclipse is crossing Oregon this fall, and whether you’re an eclipse-head or a casual stargazer, you’ll probably want to go check it out.

The eclipse is Oct. 14. On this week’s episode of Peak Northwest, we talk all about how to prepare for the big cosmic event.

Because while the annual solar eclipse won’t be quite as awesome as the total solar eclipse from 2017, it will still be a spectacular sight to behold, creating a “ring of fire” in the sky above Oregon.

Here are some highlights from this week’s show:

  • What is an annular solar eclipse?
  • When and where is the eclipse happening?
  • Are there any particularly good places in Oregon to see it?
  • When will the next eclipse come to Oregon?
