Solar eclipse 2024: Photos from the path of totality and elsewhere in the U.S.

Images show the Great American Eclipse, seen by tens of millions of people in parts of Mexico, 15 U.S. states and eastern Canada for the first time since 2017.

Millions gathered across North America on Monday to bask in the glory of the Great American Eclipse — the moment when the moon passes between the Earth and the sun. 

The path of totality measures more than 100 miles wide and will first be visible on Mexico’s Pacific coast before moving northeast through Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri, Illinois and upward toward New York, New Hampshire and Maine, then on to Canada.

Total solar eclipse 2024 highlights: Live coverage, videos and more

During the cosmic spectacle, the moon’s movements will temporarily block the sun’s light, creating minutes of darkness, and will make the sun's outer atmosphere, or the corona, visible as a glowing halo.

Here are moments of the celestial activities across the country:

Severe storms in the South

Israel wages war on Hamas

Total solar eclipse 2024

By Ashley Strickland , Elise Hammond , Maureen Chowdhury , Antoinette Radford, Eric Zerkel and Aditi Sangal , CNN

What the solar eclipse looks like from space as it moves over the Pacific toward North America

From CNN's Eric Zerkel

A satellite view captured the eclipse underway in the Pacific Ocean as it draws nearer to starting in North America.

Another view from a satellite focused over North America shows where clouds could cause problems for eclipse watchers.

Storminess and low clouds over the South won't part in time for the eclipse. Some obstructive clouds could give way to more scattered ones in parts of northern Texas, but cloudiness will still prevail. Conditions also look grim for viewing in the eastern Great Lakes and Northern Plains.

Eclipses on Earth are rare — but Mars has them every day, planetary scientist says

From CNN's Jackie Wattles

Bethany Ehlmann, a professor of planetary science at Caltech, will be catching her first total solar eclipse in Fredericksburg, Texas, where the nonprofit Planetary Society is gathered for the big show. (Ehlmann is also the president of the organization.)

"I think I've just prepared myself to be present and to be in the moment — not thinking about the gazillion other things that are happening in the world," Ehlmann told CNN.

But her mind may briefly wander to the surface of Mars, where eclipses are can be visible every single day — about three times a day, Ehlmann said.

The two Martian moons, Phobos and Deimos, are too small to offer a total eclipse like the ones we can see here on Earth. But they do routinely pass in front of the sun, keeping some of its rays from reaching the red planet.

Those eclipses are crucial for Ehlmann's day job: She's the lead investigator for NASA's Lunar Trailblazer mission, a small satellite set to scour Mars' surface for water after it launches later this year .

Ehlmann said she's kept her eyes on countless eclipses on Mars.

The reason: When Mars' moons block some sun rays it can cause power concerns for Martian spacecraft that rely on solar energy to function.

So engineers and scientists like Ehlmann design vehicles around them.

"All of the mission's power and battery systems are optimized to survive in eclipse," Ehlmann said of the Lunar Trailblazer.

Special eclipse flight is about to board in Dallas

From CNN's Pete Muntean

Passengers on special path-of-totality flights offered by commercial airlines are banking on seeing the total solar eclipse from above the clouds that have blanketed parts of the heartland.

CNN correspondent Pete Muntean is boarding Delta Air Lines flight 1010 at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport. Bound for Detroit, the flight plan includes special "turns in totality" for passengers to view the eclipse’s so-called "diamond ring" out of the Airbus A320’s 14-inch windows.

"We're just watching an area of higher clouds out over Arkansas, Oklahoma and Missouri and just hoping that they stay out of our flight path," said Delta meteorologist Warren Weston from the terminal in Dallas. Out the window of gate E15, gray clouds are hanging low over the airport. "We'll be able to get above all this very quickly and very easily,' Weston said.

Delta says flight 1010 is nearly sold out. Monday morning, seats available for the flight were listed at $950. Only aisle and middle seats in the main cabin were available.

Announced on February 26, Delta 1010 is the airline’s second path-of-totality flight after its first such flight, Delta 1218 from Austin, sold out in less than 24 hours. Both flights are planned to arrive in Detroit simultaneously followed by a party at the gate. United and Southwest Airlines are offering similar flights.

If you are only getting a partial solar eclipse, here's how to view it safely

From CNN's Ashley Strickland

If your location only affords a view of the partial solar eclipse, some of the sun’s powerful light will always be visible. And any glimpse of the sun’s brightness with the naked eye is not only uncomfortable, it’s dangerous. Directly staring at the sun can result in blindness or disrupted vision.

Here's how to view the eclipse :

• Certified eclipse glasses or use a handheld solar viewer: Beware of the fake eclipse glasses . Put on your eclipse glasses before looking up and remember to turn away from the sun before you remove them again. Always keep an eye on any children wearing eclipse glasses to make sure they don’t remove them while looking at the sun. If you normally wear eyeglasses, keep them on and put eclipse glasses over them or hold a handheld viewer in front of them, according to the American Astronomical Society.
• Telescope, binoculars or camera with a  special solar filter on the front .
• Welding filters : The international safety standard was partially derived from using such filters to view the sun. Just know that the sun will appear green instead yellowish-orange or white. These filters aren’t usually on the shelf at supply stores, but they might be available online.

What won't work:

• Sunglasses: Eclipse glasses or solar viewers are 100,000 times darker and held to an international safety standard.
• Any unfiltered optical device: Camera lens, telescope, binoculars won't work even if you're using them while wearing eclipse glasses or using a handheld solar viewer, according to  NASA . Solar rays can still burn through the filter on the glasses or viewer, given how concentrated they can be through an optical device, and can cause severe eye damage.
• Auto-darkening or adjustable welding helmets: They may not darken quickly enough to view the sun.

Eclipse Explained: Why does the eclipse move from west to east?

From CNN's Elise Hammond

The Earth rotates on its axis eastward. That means the moon and sun (plus all of the stars) look like they are moving from east to west when you are standing on Earth, according to NASA .

Here's how NASA further explained it:

"The Moon orbits Earth in the same direction as our planet rotates – eastward – but the Moon’s movement along its orbit is small compared to Earth’s daily rotation, making it difficult to notice the Moon’s eastward motion. However, during a solar eclipse, it is easier to observe this motion as the Moon crosses in front of the Sun from west to east."

James Webb telescope scientist: Eclipses can actually be pretty creepy

Heidi Hammel, the vice president for science at the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, said there have been two deeply emotional experiences in her career:

Watching total solar eclipses — and the launch of the James Webb Space Telescope, a project she worked on for 25 years that finally took to the skies in December 2021 .

"I was most surprised about the eclipse being emotional because as a planetary astronomer, I know exactly what an eclipse is," Hammel told CNN in Fredericksburg, Texas, where the nonprofit Planetary Society is gathered to watch the eclipse. (Hammel is also the organization's vice president.)

She seen three eclipses, most recently in 2017 from Sun Valley, Idaho, she said.

Hammel understands all the orbital mechanisms that lead up to such events. But she was struck by how "weird" it can be.

"The sun disappeared from the sky, and it was replaced by this huge black hole," Hammel said. "I knew all this was going on. But my amygdala — my lizard brain — was like, 'Weird things are happening here.'"

She added that, in those moments, she understood "why primitive people who didn't know what was happening would be terrified by this."

Hammel added that eclipses are exciting times for planetary science, as studying the sun's corona — or the hot outermost part of the sun's atmosphere — can help us understand more about the star at the center of our own solar system.

And the more we know about home, the more knowledge we can carry into the study of far-out galaxies, like those perused by the Webb telescope.

One long weekend in Cleveland: An international film festival, basketball finals and a solar eclipse

From CNN's Miguel Marquez

On a normal day, as they say, Cleveland rocks.

With the eclipse, the NCAA women's final four , the Cleveland International Film Festival and the Guardians home opener all converging in one weekend, Cleveland is rocking an economic high. 

Nick Urig with Destination Cleveland says Cleveland's Cuyahoga County will see 200,000 visitors for the eclipse alone. Because several major events are happening in Cleveland at the same time discerning the economic effect of each one is difficult. By one account, "hotel rates in the county are two to four times higher than this time last April" says Urig. 

For the eclipse, there are multiple large events across Cleveland. The Great Lakes Science Center and NASA's Glenn Visitor Center (NASA's Glenn Research Center is the only NASA facility in the path of totality) is the largest event expecting some 30,000 eclipse watchers. 

The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is holding a solar fest, essentially DJ'ing the eclipse itself with a curated playlist. Rock Hall, as it's known locally, will set up speakers throughout Cleveland playing every sun- and moon-related song possible, including with Pink Floyd's song "Eclipse" for totality itself. 

There are so many events converging on Cleveland over just a few days, groups like Destination Cleveland are undertaking studies to try and define how much the city has benefited and which major event eclipsed all others. 

This is the best place in Mexico to see the total solar eclipse

From CNN en Español's Luis F. Solorzano

The Port of Mazatlán in Sinaloa, Mexico, is described by NASA as the best place in the world to observe the total solar eclipse that will cross much of North America.

Preparations for the astronomical event have been vast. The government of Sinaloa delivered about 250,000 certified glasses over the past few days for observing the eclipse. Areas have been adapted where visitors will be able to appreciate the eclipse with their telescopes.

A concert with a symphony orchestra will be held in the Ciudades Hermanas Park. A report from the Sinaloa government indicated that at least 120,000 visitors are expected to be this Monday for the event. The totality of the eclipse can also be seen from the states of Durango and Coahuila.

According to experts, the west coast of Mexico will be one of the best places to observe the eclipse, especially the states of Coahuila, Durango and Sinaloa, where the moon will completely block the sun.

The last total eclipse observed from Mexico was in 1991 and the next one will be in 28 years.

Biden urges Americans to stay safe as they view the eclipse 

From CNN staff

Ahead of the arrival of the eclipse to United States, President Joe Biden urged Americans to wear the appropriate protective eyewear to witness the marvel in the sky.

"But don't be silly, folks – play it safe and wear protective eyewear," Biden said in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter.

Biden is traveling today to Madison, Wisconsin, to deliver remarks on "lowering costs for Americans." Meanwhile, Vice President Kamala Harris plans to view the solar eclipse with students in Philadelphia.

Map: 4.8-Magnitude Earthquake Strikes New Jersey

By William B. Davis ,  Madison Dong ,  Judson Jones ,  John Keefe ,  Bea Malsky and Lazaro Gamio

Shake intensity

A light, 4.8-magnitude earthquake struck in New Jersey on Friday, according to the United States Geological Survey. The quake was felt across the New York City metropolitan area, and from Philadelphia to Boston.

The temblor happened at 10:23 a.m. Eastern about 4 miles north of Whitehouse Station, N.J., data from the agency shows.

As seismologists review available data, they may revise the earthquake's reported magnitude. Additional information collected about the earthquake may also prompt U.S.G.S. scientists to update the shake-severity map.

Aftershocks in the region

At 5:59 p.m. Eastern on Friday, a light aftershock with a magnitude of 3.8 struck near Gladstone, New Jersey, according to U.S.G.S. (The agency initially gave the quake a preliminary magnitude of 4.0.)

An aftershock is usually a smaller earthquake that follows a larger one in the same general area. Aftershocks are typically minor adjustments along the portion of a fault that slipped at the time of the initial earthquake.

Quakes and aftershocks within 100 miles

Aftershocks can occur days, weeks or even years after the first earthquake. These events can be of equal or larger magnitude to the initial earthquake, and they can continue to affect already damaged locations.

How this quake compares

The U.S.G.S. has logged 188 earthquakes with a magnitude of 2.5 or greater within a 250-mile radius of New York City since 1957. In that timeframe, only seven have had a magnitude at or above 4.5. Today’s quake had the third-highest magnitude in the available data.
