Total solar eclipse 2024: Live updates - eviltoast

On April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse will be visible across the Americas.

Our total eclipse 2024 guide tells you everything you need to know, from how and where to watch it to why it’s so special.

During a total eclipse, the moon appears almost exactly the same size as the sun and blocks the entire disk for a few minutes. The stunning result is known as “totality” whereby observers can see the outmost layer of the sun’s atmosphere — the corona — with the naked eye.

The 115-mile-wide (185 kilometers) path of totality will cross three states in Mexico, 15 U.S. states and four states in southeast Canada.

    I’m more interested in the magical appearance of four states in “southeast” Canada than yet another solar eclipse.
