Follow: @SlateViral, Facebook.com/SlateVideo Watch: YouTube.com/Slatester, SlateV.com Correction: This video states the ring around the moon during the solar eclipse would be visible because the moon is closer to Earth than usual; the ring will actually be visable because the moon is farther away. Keep your eyes to the skies this weekend—a special solar eclipse is headed our way. The annular eclipse, which has the moon getting directly in the way of our view of the sun on Sunday, is the first of its kind since 1994. But it won't be a total eclipse because the moon is closer to Earth than usual; instead you'll see a ring of fire around the moon. The phenomenon happens twice a year, but is usually only visible by a small fraction of the Earth's surface. This eclipse will be visible in China and Japan on May 21 and for the first time in 18 years by continental western states, California, Nevada, and Arizona, but not the East Coast, where the sun will have already set. Those in the Northeast will have to wait for the total eclipse in 2017. For those who will get a glimpse of the annular eclipse this weekend, though, don't forget mom's advice. If you don't have a solar filter, a pinhole projector, or some special solar-safe viewing glasses, you better refrain from staring—otherwise the next eclipse might be a lot harder to see.

Millions in Asia and the Western US were looking up as a rare "ring of fire" eclipse crossed the sky. The eclipse occurs when the moon passes in front of the sun, leaving only a golden "ring of fire" visible.
