The total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024 is now just a few days away. Millions of people will be able to step outside and see a very rare spectacle: The moon moving in front of the sun, either partially or completely blocking its light. Here's what you need to know to enjoy the event. The April 2024 solar eclipse will be visible, at least in part, to nearly everyone in the U.S.
But the path of totality – where the moon will completely block the sun – is a 115-mile-wide region that stretches from southern Texas up through Ohio, then over to northern Maine. Large cities in the path of totality include: The farther you are from that path, less and less of the sun will appear to be blocked.
