A solar eclipse will occur at 1:38pm on July 1, the Deputy Director of the Shamakhi Astrophysical Observatory named after Nasireddin Tusi, Elchin Babayev, said.

He said this will be a partial eclipse of the sun.

"This is one of the most uninteresting solar eclipses, as it will happen next to Antarctica, in southern Africa. This solar eclipse is also not interesting from a scientific point of view, as happens in a place where it will be impossible to observe. This time no one will be able to watch the eclipse," Babayev said.

Four solar eclipses will occur in 2011, he said. This is the third solar eclipse this year. The next will occur on Nov.25.
