What’s happening! “The Great American Eclipse” On Aug. 21, 2017 the United States will witness a solar eclipse. While solar eclipses aren’t uncommon, this one is significant. Why? Not only is it a total solar eclipse, meaning the moon will completely block the sun from Earth, but it’s also visible from the continental United States, and the path of totality stretches from coast to coast! Many eclipses are only visible from remote parts of our planet, such as Antarctica or the middle of an ocean.

Browning Masonic Community

It has been 38years since a total eclipse was visible from the continental United States, and even then it was visible only in the U.S. Northwest & Canada. It has been a whopping 99 years since the last total eclipse crossed the continental U.S. from coast to coast. If you miss this one, you won’t get another chance to see a total solar eclipse in the continental U.S until 2024! Safety!! You should NEVER look directly at the sun, but there are many ways to safely view an eclipse. There are filters for binoculars and telescopes designed specifically for looking at the sun. It can be as simple as poking a tiny hole in a paper plate. As mentioned above, you can also safely view the eclipse via Gray Television station or live stream. When will we see the eclipses in our area? Monday,Aug. 21, 2017 Time starts: 1:02pm Ends at: 3:48pm Duration: 2 hours, 46 minutes.
