Total Solar Eclipse 2024: Here’s everything you need to know about the April 8 total solar eclipse by date and time.
Total Solar 2024: This astronomical miracle is expected to happen this year, and we are happy to witness it. A total solar eclipse is a rare astronomical event that usually occurs many years later. A total solar eclipse will occur this April, during which the sky will darken slightly.
A total solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes between the earth and the sun in perfect alignment, blocking the sun and preventing the sun’s rays from reaching the Earth. This happens for a short time. The total solar eclipse will occur in a few weeks, and we look forward to it.
When does a total solar eclipse occur?
A total solar eclipse is expected on April 8. The solar eclipse will start at 14.12 and end at 14.22. The eclipse will be visible from Canada, the USA, Mexico and North America. The people of India will not be able to see this rare event.

The day before the total solar eclipse, the Moon will be 360,000 miles from Earth, its closest point to Earth. Therefore, due to its proximity, it will also appear larger than normal in the sky. This will create a perfect match for the eclipse and create a beautiful cosmic image.
Last year’s solar eclipse was the longest in fifty years
The total solar eclipse will last about 7.5 minutes – long. This will be the longest solar eclipse in nearly half a century. The moon being close and the sun being far away will create a beautiful heavenly view.
