Watch our live stream of Total Solar Eclipse live right now

For the first time in nearly a century, Americans from coast to coast will experience a total solar eclipse. Even if you’re not within the seventy-mile-wide path of totality—in towns such as Hopkinsville, Kentucky, and Charleston, South Carolina—you can witness it. We’ve partnered with Slooh to broadcast footage from telescopes across the country. From 11:30 a.m. to 4:15 p.m., you can watch the eclipse as it crosses the U.S.—no protective glasses needed.
