I'm an award-winning journalist writing about the night sky and eclipses.
The 4 minutes 26 seconds of totality that was experienced during April 8’s total solar eclipse was the longest on land since 2010 anywhere in the world. Most totalities last about two minutes or so.On August 12, 2045, a whopping 6 minutes and 4 seconds of totality will be possible from Florida—the nation’s “Greatest American Eclipse.”America’s “Generation Eclipse.”
A mighty 318 miles/256 kilometers wide on average, the path of totality on August 12, 2045, will stretch through 12 U.S. states:After traveling through the U.S. the moon’s shadow will hit Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Venezuela, Guyana, French Guiana, Suriname and Brazil.Rather like April 8's eclipse, the 2045 total solar eclipse will come to many large U.S. cities—Reno, Salt Lake City, Colorado Springs, Oklahoma City, Tulsa, Tallahassee, Tampa, Orlando, Fort Lauderdale and Miami.
Much like the 2024 total solar eclipse followed in 2017 in the U.S, the 2045 event will be followed less than seven years later by March 30, 2052. On that day, a 4-minute and 8-second totality will come to Texas, Louisiana, Florida, Georgia and South Carolina.Although the total solar eclipse in 2045 is the next one in the U.S. to get excited by, it is not the next eclipse. In fact, on March 30, 2033, a total solar eclipse will come to Alaska , with St.
The 2045 eclipse isn't even the next total solar eclipse in the contiguous U.S.—that honor goes to one on August 22, 2044, in Montana and the Dakotas . A totality lasting as long as 2 minutes 4 seconds will be seen from Greenland, northern Canada, and in the U.S.
