  1. 1 Aug 2008 - Total Solar Eclipse

    (Saros 126, umbral mag. 1.039, max. eclipse 10:21 UT

        total: 09:21:07 UT to 11:21:28 UT)

    The track -- 237 km wide at maximum -- begins in north Canada, passes near the North Pole, and into northern Russia. It then runs south-east into China. It is visible as a partial eclipse in Britain, though will not be dramatic.

    The maximum duration is 2 minutes 27 seconds, and the path width at maximum is 237 kilometers.


  2. No, it won't be visible there, or anywhere else in the U.S.  It will be visible from extreme northern Canada across parts of Russia and northern China.  The next chance for a solar eclipse there will be a partial one which will be briefly visible toward sunset on May 20, 2012.  The next total solar eclipse visible across the U.S. will be on August 21, 2017, with the track of totality going right across the middle of the country, so we have a little bit of a wait still.

  3. There will be an annular eclipse on May 20, 2012 that will last for 5:46 min that will be able to see from  cedar rapids. Visible from Pacific, Eastern Asia, North America, Hawaii, totality across southern China, Hong Kong, Macau, KyÅ«shÅ«, Shikoku, southern Honshu, Tokyo, Oregon, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico.

    There will be a partial on October 23, 2014.  Visible from Northern Pacific, North America, Mexico, eastern Russia.

    There will be a total one on August 21, 2017 that will be able to see from the whole US.  Visible from North America, Hawaii, Greenland, Iceland, British Isles, Portugal, Central America, Caribbean, Northern South America, Chukchi Peninsula, totality across Oregon, Idaho, Wyoming, Nebraska, northeastern Kansas, Missouri, southern Illinois, western Kentucky, Tennessee, southwestern North Carolina, northeastern Georgia, South Carolina. Solar eclipse of August 21, 2017; first total eclipse visible from the contiguous United States since 1979.
