Canal 10, a news station in Rio Negro, Argentina, will live-stream the eventВ in Spanish.В Time and DateВ is also doing a live stream starting at 9:30 a.m. SLOOH, a robotic telescope service, also will run a live feedВ starting at 9:30 a.m. NASA has a page up for the eclipse and will be doing a live feed starting at 10:30 a.m. Watching a feed is no substitute for being there in person, but it can be a worthwhile experience, as I discovered while monitoring several feeds from the 2016 eclipse from Indonesia and Woleai atoll. Fortunately, some organizations plan to live-stream the event. The MoonвЂ™s shadow soon completes its passage of South America, the center line passing near the resort of La Gruta on the Golfo San Matias, and then its sweeps out into the South Atlantic, with totality ending at sunset about 120 miles off the African coast west of Walvis Bay, Namibia.Д®ven the eclipseвЂ™s partial phases are largely visible only in the Southern Hemisphere, and will not be seen in North America at all. E.T.) where totality is at its maximum duration of 2 minutes 10 seconds and the Sun is high in the sky (76 degrees). Mid-eclipse occurs near the town of Sierra Colorada in central Argentina at 1:14 p.m. The eclipse starts at dawn in the Pacific, about 500 km east of the Marquesas islands, and then the MoonвЂ™s shadow tracks across 2,000 miles of open ocean before the northern edge of the shadow passes over Isla Mocha off the Chilean coast, crosses the coastline near the town of Saavedra, and then sweeps across Chile and Argentina, the center line passing near the Chilean resort towns of Villerica and Pucon. And while last yearвЂ™s eclipse occurred in the late afternoon for Chile and Argentina, this one will happen when the Sun is very high (~76 degrees) in the sky. It is now approaching midsummer in the southern hemisphere, while the 2019 eclipse occurred during South American winter.

The path of todayвЂ™s eclipse across South America is somewhat similar to the 2019 event, except that the MoonвЂ™s shadow will track about 300 miles farther south, crossing northern Patagonia. Between travel uncertainty and the threat of COVID-19, I opted to stay home in New York, but I will be checking out some of the live feeds that I detail below to view the eclipse vicariously.

After seeing the spectacular July 2019 total solar eclipse from northwestern Argentina at the foot of the Andes (see photo above), I had been looking forward to returning to South America for todayвЂ™s eclipse, but that was not to be.
