Solar eclipse of December 7, 2094
A partial solar eclipse will occur at the Moon's descending node of orbit on Tuesday, December 7, 2094, with a magnitude of 0.7046. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partly obscuring the image of the Sun for a viewer on Earth. A partial solar eclipse occurs in the polar regions of the Earth when the center of the Moon's shadow misses the Earth.
This will be the last of four solar eclipses in 2094, with the others occurring on January 16, June 13, and July 12.
The partial solar eclipse will be visible for much of North America.

Eclipse season
This eclipse is part of an eclipse season, a period, roughly every six months, when eclipses occur. Only two eclipse seasons occur each year, and each season lasts about 35 days and repeats just short of six months later; thus two full eclipse seasons always occur each year. Either two or three eclipses happen each eclipse season. In the sequence below, each eclipse is separated by a fortnight.| December 7 Descending node | December 21 Ascending node |
| Partial solar eclipse Solar Saros 124 | Total lunar eclipse Lunar Saros 136 |
