Total Solar Eclipse of 2024: A Once in a Lifetime Experience for North America
On April 8, 2024, North America will be treated to a rare celestial event: a total solar eclipse. This incredible sight will be visible from Texas to Maine, providing over 30 million people with the opportunity to witness totality. For those who live in the path of totality, the experience will be even more breathtaking. However, many more people can still witness the eclipse by traveling just a short distance.
NASA has carefully mapped out the path of totality across the United States, making it easy for everyone to determine the best locations and times to view the eclipse. The eclipse will make its way through Maine and exit the country by 3:35 p.m. Eastern Time on April 8th. This will be the last chance to see a total solar eclipse in the contiguous U.S. for the next 20 years, so make sure to plan your viewing location accordingly!
