On April 8, 2024, skygazers across North America — including parts of Mexico, the United States, and Canada — are set to witness a total solar eclipse.
A truly rare phenomenon, the last time the continental United States witnessed a total solar eclipse was seven years ago, in August 2017.
And if you miss this eclipse, the wait for the next total solar eclipse will be longer, with the next one not happening until August 23, 2044.
The 2024 total solar eclipse will follow a path starting from the Pacific coast of Mexico, traveling northeast through the United States, and finally reaching the eastern provinces of Canada
