Notable annulars — the rings of fire
An annular eclipse never turns day to night: the Moon sits too far away and a blinding ring of Sun remains. Spectacular through a filter, never safe without one, for every second — see eye safety.

Not an eclipse, still one night
13 Apr 2029 · asteroid close approach
Apophis passes under 32,000 km
A ~375 m asteroid, naked-eye for one night from Europe, Africa and western Asia — once in ~7,500 years, and no, it cannot hit us. Same question as an eclipse: where should you stand?
