Missed the 2024 solar eclipse? Here's when and where you can see the next one
The 2024 total solar eclipse was watched by at least 30 million people in the US who stared in wonder at the moon blocking out the sun for a few minutes.
Now that the celestial event has ended, many are wondering when the next one will grace the nation’s skies.
The next total solar eclipse will not take place until March 30, 2033, but Alaska will be the only North American region to witness it.
On August 23, 2044, however, another will sweep across Montana and North Dakota - Americans will not see another solar eclipse like the one on Monday until 2045.
