Blocking out the sun
A total solar eclipse blacked out the sky on March 9, 2016, over Woleai Island in Micronesia. This image from a NASA webcast shows the moment of totality, when the moon passes completely in front of the sun. Residents of North America will get their turn to see a sight like this on August 21, 2017, when a total eclipse will be visible along a pathway stretching from Oregon through Wyoming, Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina.
