   Summary Author:  Anthony Ayiomamitis

   We were very fortunate to have had a great stretch of weather here in
   Greece during late October that allowed us to observe the second and
   final solar eclipse for 2022. This was a  partial eclipse, on
    October25, but it  shaded as much as 86% of the Sun for some
   parts of western Siberia. It was visible to residents of Europe,
   northeast Africa, the Middle East and western Asia. The eclipse depth
   for Athens, Greece, was approximately 38%, with the eclipse having a
   duration of two hours and fifteen minutes. Maximum eclipse occurred at
   13:42:56 (UT+3 local time). Note, as an added bonus there were three
    active solar regions; one at each of the limbs to the east and to
   the west (AR3131 and AR3126, respectively) as well as another fainter
   group just south of center (AR3130).
