A partial solar eclipse occurred on January 5, 1935. 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 partial solar eclipse occurs in the polar regions of the Earth when the center of the Moon's shadow misses the Earth. It was the last eclipse of solar saros 111 with the moon's penumbra touching the earth for just 10 minutes.[1]
