A partial solar eclipse happens this weekend over Asia

(CNN)A partial solar eclipse will help kick off the new year Sunday as the moon passes between Earth and the sun. But visibility depends on where you live — and clear skies, of course.

The partial solar eclipse will be visible after sunrise in Asia in China, in North and South Korea, in Japan, in Russia and over the North Pacific Ocean and the Aleutian Islands, including a tiny portion of Alaska before sunset.
Find out what time to see it in these areas on Time and Date. Sky & Telescope predicts that people will see 20% of the sun covered from Beijing, 30% from Tokyo and 37% from Vladivostok, Russia.
