What kind of eclipse this is
The eclipse of July 6, 2028 is partial, which means only part of the disc is covered, and there is no track of totality anywhere on Earth. Maximum falls at 18:20 UTC with the Sun at 15°11' Cancer and the Moon at 15°16' Capricorn, close enough to a node on that date for the three bodies to line up rather than merely oppose.
It is one of 2 eclipses inside a single season, the others falling on July 22, 2028, which is the pattern how eclipse seasons work explains.
