Solar eclipses don't just happen here on earth - moons of other planets also pass between those planets and the sun, resulting in various types of solar eclipses on Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and even non-planets like Pluto, Eris and various asteroids. So, where are the best eclipses in the solar system? For that, we need a tier list.

Fun fact: the Saturn moons Janus and Epimetheus are coorbital. This means they have very similar orbits. Roughly every four years, the moons will get close to each other and perform a sort of gravitational dance, where they switch orbits. So Janus taking the orbit of Epimetheus and vice versa.

Another consideration for those S-tier eclipses on outer planets is that they're all caused by moons in very rapid orbits (typically about a day or less). They move incredibly rapidly across the sky, so any eclipses they cause (particularly with a size match to the sun close enough that much of the corona is visible) will be incredibly quick - on the order of several seconds (if even that much). They're also not round so you're a lot less likely to see effects such as Baily's Beads or a prominent diamond ring effect. Solar eclipses from the earth are truly unique.

7:55 I ran the numbers for Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto a few years ago. The apparent sizes vary wildly depending on where the moons are in their respective orbits, but the apparent diameter ranges for Io and Europa do overlap with the apparent diameter of the Sun, when observed from either Ganymede or Callisto. So perfectly aligned total solar eclipses - where the photosphere is blocked but not the corona - are possible, but I have no idea of how frequent they would be.

Eclipses by other moons are probably very rare, but might be cool, while eclipses by their respective planets are 100% nighttime, as both Jupiter and Saturn are huge in the sky. The start and end of the eclipse might be interesting tho, depending on how the sunlight gets diffused by the atmosphere. Lastly, Titan might actually get some great eclipses from Saturn's rings.

Pluto actually does have an atmosphere! It is mostly nitrogen so it is a similar color to earth’s. It’s atmosphere can reach up to 200 km above the surface, but the maximum height seems to vary. Also, the atmosphere is dense enough to be visible, but not nearly dense enough to block your view of the stars, it’s more of a light blue haze.

All I know is that I was able to travel to northern VT on Monday and witness a few mins of totality under clear skies, which is insane considering how the weather usually is in New England this time of year. To have been waiting for this for 7 years+, and take my wife and 4 year old daughter, who wasn't even conceived of yet when I first planned on going, was amazing for the lack of a better word. The icing on the cake was getting a couple great shots of not only the corona, but the solar flares around the sun at the time with my wife's canon 5DmkIV with 75-200mm f2.8L lens @ 200mm. It all feels like a "fairy tale" story in how it all worked out. I just hope my daughter remembers it... she's been talking about it ever since… She seems to think it will be something we can see all the time because she was so young seeing her first eclipse 😂 I'll never forget the moment that last sliver of sun vanished, and we first saw totality... my daughter immediately yelled out after we told her she could take her glasses off "daddy! The sun is black, with a big glowing ring around it!" Absolutely a once in a lifetime experience. Worth fighting all the traffic for sure!

The eclipse simulations are so good I almost wanted to use sunglasses. The simulated sun/day sky is somehow almost as bright as Discord light mode.

Nice video. You really need to have two or three more tiers, just to separate Earth's solar eclipses from all the others. None of them would even come close to a total eclipse as seen from Earth.

Can you drop the sources for this? Desperately been looking for sources on non-earth eclipses!

What if a little black hole, orbiting like a planet, passed between Earth and the Sun? I think that would be S tier

it would have to be absolutely humongous to actually eclipse the Sun. To the point, where the Sun would likely be orbiting it xD.

I wish I would've watched this video last week. As amazing as seeing the eclipse was, it would've been even better if I knew more about what I was looking at. Dang it, 21 years to go to the next one!

Idea for next vid: Explain where idea of "S-tier" came from and why it's a such bad idea. 🙂
