A total solar eclipse will occur at the Moon's descending node of orbit on Saturday, August 12, 2045, [1] with a magnitude of 1.0774. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partly obscuring the image of the Sun for a viewer on Earth.
Two total solar eclipses occurred on June 8, 1918 and August 21, 2017, and the other will occur on August 12, 2045. The most recent total solar eclipse in Kansas was on August 21, 2017; the most recent annular solar eclipse was on May 10, 1994; and the most recent partial solar eclipse was on April 8, 2024.
At this point, the longest measured duration in which the Moon completely covered the Sun, known as totality, was during the solar eclipse of July 22, 2009. This total solar eclipse had a maximum duration of 6 minutes and 38.86 seconds. The longest possible duration of a total solar eclipse is 7 minutes and 32 seconds.
An annular solar eclipse will occur at the Moon's ascending node of orbit on Thursday, February 16, 2045, [1] with a magnitude of 0.9285. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partly obscuring the image of the Sun for a viewer on Earth.
A total eclipse occurs on average every 18 months [11] when the dark silhouette of the Moon completely obscures the bright light of the Sun, allowing the much fainter solar corona to be visible. During an eclipse, totality occurs only along a narrow track on the surface of Earth. [12] This narrow track is called the path of totality. [13]
The next time New York will be on the path of totality for a total solar eclipse is 55 years from now on May 1, 2079. The eclipse will start at sunrise and reach totality at 6:07 a.m. for 59 ...
The next total solar eclipse in the US will be on March 30, 2033, which will pass over Alaska. The next total eclipse in the contiguous United States of the US will be on August 23, 2044. The next total eclipse of similar width will take place on August 12, 2045, which will traverse coast-to-coast in a trajectory similar to the 2017 eclipse.
The shadow will be traveling at an average of about 2,300 miles per hour across NY state and will only take about 10 minutes, from one side of state to the other.
