20th-century partial solar eclipse / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A partial solar eclipse occurred at the Moon's ascending node of orbit on Thursday, March 28, 1968, with a magnitude of 0.899. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partly obscuring the image of the Sun for a viewer on Earth. A partial solar eclipse occurs in the polar regions of the Earth when the center of the Moon's shadow misses the Earth.
