NASA direct coverage of the 2024 eclipse

Also useful, an interactive map of the path of the eclipse: https://eclipse2024.org/eclipse_cities/statemap.php https://eclipse2024.org/eclipse_cities/statemap.php

  I like this one better, allowing you to click a location for the exact times/durations of the eclipse for that location: http://xjubier.free.fr/en/site_pages/solar_eclipses/TSE_2024_GoogleMapFull.html http://xjubier.free.fr/en/site_pages/solar_eclipses/TSE_2024...

Any guides on total eclipses around the world? Didn't realize this was the last one in the US for another twenty years. But it seems like they happen atleast once a year somewhere.

    Quite limited list from NASA. Here is another option with more for the next 10 years https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/list.html https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/list.html

  Looking at 'Cloud Thickness' it would seem there are very few places in N. America where the eclipse will be unobstructed. Am I reading that right?

    I think blue is more-obstructed. Which is a really confusing choice.

      Thank you, I was so confused. Why in the world would they use “blue = more cloud coverage, white/gray = less”?

I'm looking forward to seeing GEOS weather satellite images of the shadow crossing the united states here: https://rammb-slider.cira.colostate.edu/ https://rammb-slider.cira.colostate.edu/

  NASA's EPIC DISCOVR mission will also be a good one to watch. This satellite watches the earth always on the sunlit side. https://epic.gsfc.nasa.gov/ https://epic.gsfc.nasa.gov/
