A total solar eclipse captivated millions in North America on April 8th, with NASA scientists studying its impact on weather.

Intern Emma Friedman and astronaut Michael Barratt were among those who experienced the eclipse, with Barratt being one of 30 to see it from space.

The event was documented by various satellites, including GOES-16 and Starlink, and live-streamed by the International Space Station crew.

Rochester, NY, recalled its imaging heritage during the eclipse on April 10, 2024, and NASA has provided an eclipse calendar up to 2026.

Future eclipse events include annular solar eclipses and both partial and total lunar eclipses, with the next total solar eclipse in August 2026 spanning several countries.

Eclipse glasses can be donated to Astronomers Without Borders, and the next total solar eclipse viewable from the Lower 48 is not until August 2044.

Due to the moon's gradual distancing from Earth, total solar eclipses will one day cease to be visible from our planet.
