Courtesy of greatamericaneclipse.com the above is a flyover view of the path of totality (umbra) for the upcoming April 8 total solar eclipse …

From the website: Watch the Moon’s shadow fly from Mazatlan to Newfoundland on April 8, 2024! This animation simulates the view from a spacecraft 100 miles high that is chasing the eclipse. The dark oval represents where the total solar eclipse will be seen at that moment. The time of eclipse is given in the local time zone. The duration is the maximum at the center of the Moon’s shadow. Places near the centerline receive the longest duration.

In addition to this very interesting and informative website, there are numerous other videos, maps, images, and articles addressing the upcoming solar event. In this post I have collected many that I have come across. As April 8th approaches I will add to the list in the order that I come across them (a few might be behind a paywall).
