The arrival of the total solar eclipse in the US has also brought with it an impressive array of photos. If you weren’t able to find a place to view the eclipse in person—or if it was stuck behind uncooperative clouds—you can at least get a sense of its majesty from these photos taken at various points along the journey.
The path of totality began Monday morning in Mexico and worked its way up through Texas by early afternoon. By 4:40 PM ET, the plane will have completely left the US and entered Canada. If you’re on or near the trail, be sure to put on approved sunglasses (or make your own) to check it out for yourself. And if you have pets or live near wildlife, NASA could use a helping hand to find out how animals react to the solar eclipse.
Otherwise, enjoy these incredible photos of a total solar eclipse in North America. The next one is in twenty years.
