A total solar eclipse occurs when the Sun, Moon, and Earth are in a direct line. The Moon completely blocks the Sun, and the sky will darken as if it were night. A total solar eclipse is only visible to a small area on Earth. This area is the umbra and often referred to as the path of totality. Learn the unique aspects that make Harrison, Arkansas on this year’s path of totality.
