  4. COOL !!! Go to nasa.gov

  5. You won't be able to see it in Texas.  

    "The solar eclipse that takes place on August 1, 2008 will be a total eclipse of the Sun with a magnitude of 1.039 that will be visible from a narrow corridor through northern Canada (Nunavut), Greenland, central Russia, eastern Kazakhstan, western Mongolia, and China. It belongs to the so-called midnight sun eclipses, as it will be visible from regions experiencing midnight sun.

    "A partial eclipse is seen within the much broader path of the Moon's penumbral shadow, which includes northeastern North America, most of Europe and Asia."
