STORYLINE
The first partial solar eclipse of 2011 was visible in both Iraq and Iran on Tuesday, as astronomy enthusiasts gathered to catch a rare glimpse of the sun slipping behind the moon.
The eclipse began over the Mideast and extended across much of Europe.
In Iraq's capital Baghdad, people gathered to watch the skies darken - some with the help of a special telescope.
In Tehran, members of the Amateur Astronomy Society gathered with special telescopes and binoculars to watch the sunlight slowly fall away.
The eclipse was first seen on Tuesday over Jerusalem, where the sun appeared to have taken a large bit out of its upper right section.
A solar eclipse happens when the moon lines up between the sun and the Earth, casting a lunar shadow on the Earth's surface and obscuring the solar disk.
During a partial solar eclipse, only part of the sun is blotted out.
Astronomers expected the greatest eclipse over Sweden, where about 85 percent of the sun will be blocked.
A sunset eclipse will be visible from central Russia, Kazakhstan, Mongolia and northwest China.
