ECLIPSES in 2012

Predictions for the eclipses are summarized on NASA Eclipses Web Site
Two solar and two lunar eclipses take place in 2012 as follows.
The first solar eclipse of 2012 occurs at the Moon's descending node in central Taurus. An annular eclipse will be visible from a 240 to 300 kilometre-wide track that traverses eastern Asia, the northern Pacific Ocean and the western United States. A partial eclipse is seen within the much broader path of the Moon's penumbral shadow, that includes much of Asia, the Pacific and the western 2/3 of North America.
