The states that will be hit going south east with this amazing sight are Oregon, Idaho, Wyoming, Nebraska, a bit of Kansas, Illinois, Tennessee, Kentucky, North Carolina, Georgia, and South Carolina. Remember, these are just the names of the states that will get totality. Only a part of the state will get the path of totality. Go to Google to find out where they will be. it has been a very long time since we have had an eclipse, I think since the 1980s was the previous one. A solar eclipse is when the Moon gets between the Earth and the Sun, blocking the Sun from view. It is one of the Universes most amazing sights, and you should see it while you still can. Why?, the Moon is getting farther away from its normal orbit, but still intact, and much later in the future it will no longer be able to be viewed. Okay, that's going to be at least close to a billion years, if that makes you feel better.
