An annular solar eclipse will occur at the Moon's ascending node of orbit on Saturday, February 6, 2027, with a magnitude of 0.9281.

An annular solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is smaller than the Sun's, blocking most of the Sun's light and causing the Sun to look like an annulus (ring). An annular eclipse appears as a partial eclipse over a region of the Earth thousands of kilometres wide. Occurring about 3.2 days after apogee, the Moon's apparent diameter will be smaller.
