In which places in Argentina can the annular solar eclipse be seen?

Some northern provinces and the province of Buenos Aires - where it will be partially observed - will be able to enjoy the astronomical phenomenon that can be seen in several regions of America. They recommend not looking at the Sun with the naked eye, nor through an x-ray: how to build a "camera obscura" with paper and cardboard to see the phenomenon.

A new annular solar eclipse will be visible this Saturday in several regions of America, including some areas of Argentina, which at 3:55 p.m. will be able to observe the astronomical phenomenon, such as in some northern provinces and the province of Buenos Aires where it will be observed in partially. The privileged places to observe the eclipse from America will be Oregon, Nevada, Utah, Texas and New Mexico, since they are in direct line with the phenomenon, so they could appreciate its first phases if the weather permits. The eclipse will then cross Central America, reach its final phase in South America and culminate with sunset over the Atlantic Ocean. Mexico, Belize, Honduras, Panama, Colombia and Brazil will also witness the annular solar eclipse.
