The last and final solar eclipse of the year is set to take place on December 4, 2021. This celestial event will be a total solar eclipse as compared to the previous annular solar eclipse that occurred earlier this year on June 10.
The solar eclipse takes place when the moon passes between the sun and the earth and blocks out the sun. This happens because the distance between the Earth and sun is at its smallest and hence when the moon goes between these two bodies, it becomes impossible to view a typical eclipse through the naked eye.
