People in Europe, north Africa, the Middle East, and Asia will get front row seats to this most recent celestial display

A partial solar eclipse is set to take place on Tuesday, putting on a show for Europe, north Africa, the Middle East, and Asia.

Not to be confused with a total eclipse, a partial solar eclipse is when the moon blocks just part of the sun.

On Tuesday, when the moon is orbiting the Earth, and as the Earth is simultaneously orbiting the sun, the moon gets caught in the middle and casts a shadow on some of us earthlings.

The earthlings standing in that shadow are the ones who get front row seats to the celestial display.

The first to see the display will be those in Reykjavik, Iceland at 8:58 am local time.

Then over to London where the moon will block about 15 per cent of the sun at 11:00 am.

And at 4:00 pm in Russia’s southern Ural region, the shadow will peak with an expected 79 per cent coverage of the sun.

If you’re in New Dehli, be sure to catch the eclipse on your way out of work where the sun will be 44 per cent covered at 5:30 pm local time.

Remember, never look directly at the sun during an eclipse with your naked eye! Doing so can cause permanent sight damage, so get out a pair of eclipse viewing glasses and enjoy the show!

Australia’s multimillion-dollar campaign to attract Hollywood productions to its shores appears to be paying off.

The allure of Australia lies not only in its picturesque locations but also in its competitive financial incentives.

The government offers generous rebates and tax breaks to international productions, making it an attractive proposition for filmmakers looking to maximise their budgets.

Despite the recent intake of Hollywood productions down under such as ‘The Fall Guy’ and ‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’, Aussie independents are still finding the space to carve their own creative path.

Rob Fantozzi joined the program to discuss the latest in Hollywood, and showcased his own upcoming project – ‘Omerta‘. #featured

American home prices are rising at faster pace now than in the last 20-years.

A recent analysis reveals a jaw dropping surge in the cost of American homes.

Since the start of 2020, U.S. home prices have surged 47% easily outstripping the gains seen in recent decades.

On top of that, home price growth so far this decade is on the verge of surpassing all the growth seen in the 2000s.

Many experts believe this decade’s housing market frenzy was ignited by a perfect storm — the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic triggering an unprecedented rush among buyers.

Tom Hutchens, the Executive Vice President of Production at Angel Oak Mortgage Solutions joins Veronica Dudo to discuss.
