What's so special about this eclipse?
A total solar eclipse happens when the moon completely covers the face of the sun. You won't want to miss it because:
- Total solar eclipses occur in the same place only about once every hundred years
- You'll be able to observe the sun's corona safely without eclipse glasses (*when the sun is completely covered*)
- It will be an experience that you'll never forget
