"Why the April 8 Solar Eclipse Outshines 2017's"

TL;DR Summary
The upcoming total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024, is anticipated to be better than the 2017 eclipse for several reasons. The sun's corona is expected to be more dynamic due to the sun reaching solar maximum, the shadow will be larger and darker, more people will be able to witness it, the duration of totality will be longer, and the eclipse's arrival will be more dramatic as the moon's shadow moves faster across the U.S. The 2024 eclipse is the last total solar eclipse visible from the United States until 2044.
