- 12 years ago
People across Asia and the western United States have been gazing at the skies to see the sun blotted out.
An annular solar eclipse created a "ring of fire" around the moon when it reached its peak in the US late on Sunday local time.
The eclipse generated much excitment in Tokyo, which has not witnessed one for 173 years and won`t see another for centuries.
