Days to Next U.S. Solar Eclipse

The "Great American Eclipse" of August 21, 2017, is now history. But two more major solar eclipses are coming to the U.S. in the not-too-distant future. On Saturday, October 14, 2023, an annular ("ring of fire") eclipse sweeps from Oregon to Texas in a 125-mile-wide path. Just six months later, on Monday, April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse darkens a 115-mile-wide swath from Texas to Maine. In both cases all of North America will have at least a partial solar eclipse. In the coming months we'll revise this website to recap some highlights from 2017 and look forward to 2023 and 2024!
