On April 8, 2024, a spectacular and rare celestial event is set to unfold over Canada, the United States and Mexico – a total solar eclipse. As the Moon aligns perfectly between Earth and the Sun, temporary darkness will sweep across parts of the country, captivating countless spectators.

I have not seen a total one since i was a small kid, so I can’t really say… Totality will have these things last longer, but I’m sure there is no clear-cut difference.

Totally makes sense. Personally I was so in awe of what I did see it was more than enough to make the experience worth it.

Point being even if you’re not able to get quite into the path of totality, if you can watch it you absolutely should! :)
