Total Solar Eclipse To Create Celestial Spectacle Across North America

Campers try out solar eclipse glasses a day of ahead of the total solar eclipse in Southern Illinois

After nearly seven years of anticipation, a total solar eclipse is set to grace the skies over the United States, Mexico, and Canada. An estimated 32 million people in the US reside within the path of totality, where the moon will completely obscure the sun.

The eclipse will commence over the South Pacific Ocean before journeying across North America. Mexico's Pacific coast marks the initial point of totality, with the eclipse expected to culminate on the Atlantic coast of Newfoundland. Those at the center line of the path will witness the eclipse for 3 ½ to 4 minutes.
