A partial solar eclipse will occur at the Moon's ascending node of orbit on Saturday, November 24, 2068,{{cite web|title=November 24, 2068 Partial Solar Eclipse|url=https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/solar/2068-november-24|publisher=timeanddate|access-date=20 August 2024}} with a magnitude of 0.9109. 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.

The partial solar eclipse will be visible for parts of the Russian Far East and much of North America.

Eclipse season

{{See also|Eclipse cycle}}

This eclipse is part of an eclipse season, a period, roughly every six months, when eclipses occur. Only two (or occasionally three) eclipse seasons occur each year, and each season lasts about 35 days and repeats just short of six months (173 days) later; thus two full eclipse seasons always occur each year. Either two or three eclipses happen each eclipse season. In the sequence below, each eclipse is separated by a fortnight.
