The answer is annular solar eclipse. This starts when the Moon houses the Sun's midpoint, leaving the Sun's noticeable outside edges to make a “ring of fire” or annulus in the opposite direction of the Moon. The ring of fire results the all-out stage of an annular solar eclipse. Solar eclipses occur when the Moon companies a sleuth on Earth.
