TL;DR

The total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024, will be visible from Mexico through the United States and up through Canada, with 15 states along the path of totality experiencing the moon's shadow completely covering the sun. Residents in these states will witness the sky becoming dark as if it were dawn or dusk, and may see the sun's corona, our outer atmosphere. The eclipse will last between 3.5 and 4 minutes for most places along the path of totality, and safety glasses are necessary for viewing.
