Solar eclipse of November 2, 1967

A total solar eclipse occurred at the Moon's descending node of orbit on Thursday, November 2, 1967, with a magnitude of 1.0126. 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 total solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is larger than the Sun's, blocking all direct sunlight, turning day into darkness. Totality occurs in a narrow path across Earth's surface, with the partial solar eclipse visible over a surrounding region thousands of kilometres wide.

This total eclipse was very unusual in that it was non-central and did not have a central line nor a southern path limit. Instead, over half of the umbral shadow missed the Earth throughout the eclipse. The gamma was −1.0007.

This was the first of 55 umbral solar eclipses of Solar Saros 152, the last will be in 2941. The total duration is 974 years.
