August 21, 2017 â Great American Eclipse (Total Solar Eclipse) The total phase of this total solar eclipse will be visible from a narrow path spanning all across the USA from the East Coast to the West Coast (see map below), weather permitting. In the surrounding areas, people will see a partial solar eclipse.
Fortunately, every lunar eclipse is observable anywhere on Earth where the Moon is above the horizon. (But there's still an element of luck involved â after all, the sky has to be clear!) However, solar eclipses more tightly restrict where you can see them because the Moon casts a smaller shadow than Earth does.
