Solar Eclipse 2024 Special. Unlike april’s solar eclipse, when the moon blocked the sun, this time the earth’s shadow will spill over the moon, blocking some or all of its illuminated surface. Why is the 2024 eclipse so special?

A solar eclipse occurs when the moon orients itself between earth and the sun, shielding the solar surface from our view. The total solar eclipse began over the south pacific.
