"Total Solar Eclipse: Viewing Challenges Across the US"

The Luna Pier area in Monroe County, Michigan, is the only place in the state where people can witness the total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024, with the Moon completely covering the Sun for approximately 19 seconds. The eclipse will begin at 1:57 p.m., with total coverage from 3:13:05 p.m. to 3:13:24 p.m. Those in the path of totality will experience a darkened sky, while others will see a partial eclipse. NASA provides an interactive map for eclipse coverage and safety information, emphasizing the need for eye protection even at 99% coverage.
