怀俄明州的月亮和太阳

The Moon passes in front of the Sun in this Aug. 21, 2017, image taken at the point of the maximum partial eclipse. This photo was taken near Banner, Wyoming, where a partial eclipse was visible. However, a narrow portion of the contiguous United States from Lincoln Beach, Oregon to Charleston, South Carolina saw a total solar eclipse.

On April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse will cross North America, passing over Mexico, the United States, and Canada. A total solar eclipse happens when the Moon passes between the Sun and Earth, completely blocking the face of the Sun. The sky will darken as if it were dawn or dusk.

See the path of the eclipse and how to safely watch it. If you’re not in the path of the eclipse, watch with NASA from anywhere in the world. We will provide live broadcast coverage on April 8 from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. EDT (1700 to 2000 UTC).

这张照片拍摄于2017年8月21日，展示了月亮在最大偏食阶段从太阳前经过的景象。照片拍摄地点在怀俄明州的班纳附近，那里可以看到日偏食。然而，从俄勒冈州的林肯海滩到南卡罗来纳州的查尔斯顿，美国本土的一条狭窄地带看到了日全食。

2024年4月8日，一次全日食将横穿北美，经过墨西哥、美国和加拿大。全日食发生时，月亮位于太阳和地球之间，完全挡住了太阳的表面。天空将会变暗，就像是黎明或黄昏时分。

查看日食路径以及如何安全观看。如果您不在日食路径上，请与NASA一起在世界任何地方观看。我们将在4月8日美国东部夏令时间下午1点至4点（世界协调时间1700至2000）提供现场直播。
