This eclipse is a hybrid eclipse, a rare type in which starts as an annular eclipse, becomes total, and then annular again.
One place the total eclipse is visible from is Exmouth, Western Australia. The moon touches the sun at 10:04 a.m. Australia Western Standard Time and the full eclipse is at 11:29 a.m. Totality will last about 58 seconds. In Timor-Leste, the city of Lospalos, also in the path of totality, the eclipse starts at 11:46 a.m. local time, and the full eclipse begins at 1:21 p.m. Totality will last 1 minute and 7 seconds.
For those not lucky enough to be in the path of totality, a partial eclipse can be seen in an area that covers all of Australia and Indonesia and much of the southern Philippines, Malaysia and Vietnam. The eastern part of the eclipse path crosses Micronesia and the Marshall Islands . An illustration showing the shadow of the moon passing across the Earth on April 20 during a rare hybrid solar eclipse., two days after the new moon. The young moon sets within an hour or two after sunset, so there won't be any interference from the moon's light when the shower peaks on April 22-23. The Lyrids' radiant – the point where the meteors appear to come from – is in the constellation, which in the northern hemisphere gets above the eastern horizon by about 9:30 p.m.
Southern Hemisphere meteor watchers can see the Lyrids as well, though from Melbourne, Australia, for example, the radiant never gets above the horizon. The meteors will still be visible, though appearing to come from the north and fewer in number. However, antipodeans will have their own meteor shower to watch – the Pi Puppids, a lesser-known shower that peaks around the same time as the Lyrids, on April 23. In mid-southern latitudes the radiant, which is in the constellation Puppis, will be at its highest point at about 6 p.m. local time, and set at about 3 a.m., according to skywatching site
