Total solar eclipses are rare occurrences at any given location. The last one visible from anywhere in the continental United States was in 1979, in the Pacific Northwest. That's why the August 21, 2017, eclipse is a very big deal . It will offer an estimated sixty-five million people the chance to participate in this celestial phenomenon.
