On the morning of December 14th, 2020, the moon will briefly reclaim the sky over southern Chile and Argentina, casting a narrow ribbon of totality across the southern tip of South America — the only total solar eclipse the world will witness all year. In a year marked by isolation and disruption, the event arrives as a reminder that the celestial calendar keeps its own appointments, indifferent to human circumstance. For those unable to stand in the shadow's path, livestreams from Chilean observatories and the slopes of Villarrica volcano will carry the moment to screens around the world.
