A total solar eclipse will occur at the Moon's ascending node of orbit on Sunday, September 2, 2035, with a magnitude of 1.032. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partly obscuring the image of the Sun for a viewer on Earth. A total solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is larger than the Sun's, blocking all direct sunlight, turning day into darkness. Totality occurs in a narrow path across Earth's surface, with the partial solar eclipse visible over a surrounding region thousands of kilometres wide. Occurring about 2.9 days after perigee (on Thursday, August 30, 2035, at 3:35 UTC), the Moon's apparent diameter will be larger.
Totality will be visible from parts of northern China, North Korea, the extreme northern tip of South Korea (Goseong County, Gangwon Province) and Japan. A partial eclipse will be visible for most of Asia, northern Oceania, Hawaii, southwest Alaska, and the western United States.
