The American Astronomical Society's Solar Eclipse Task Force created this website to help people across North America get ready for the August 2017, October 2023, and April 2024 "Great American" solar eclipses and to experience these celestial spectacles safely and enjoyably. Given that there won't be another major solar eclipse across the continent until the mid-2040s, this site is transitioning to an "evergreen" archive of useful information and resources for the benefit of eclipse planners worldwide.
