Total Solar Eclipse 2024 at the Frontiers of Flight Museum April 8, 2024

Are you ready for the celestial event of the decade? On April 8th, 2024, a total solar eclipse will be visible from parts of North America, making this an incredibly rare and exciting event that shouldn't be missed! During a total solar eclipse, the Moon passes between the Sun and the Earth, causing the Sun to be completely blocked out for a few brief minutes. The sky will darken, stars will appear, and temperatures will drop - it's a truly unforgettable experience that will leave you in awe of the universe. To witness this incredible spectacle, you'll need to be in the path of totality. The path of totality for the 2024 eclipse will stretch from Texas to Maine, passing through cities like Dallas! Even if you're not in the path of totality, you'll still be able to see a partial eclipse from other parts of North America.
