Excitement is growing for Monday's solar eclipse. It's the first total eclipse visible in the U.S. since 2017, and will be the last one seen here until 2044. The path of totality will start crossing the U.S. at around 1:30 p.m. Central Time, and will take about an hour. People in the path will see the moon completely block out the sun's light for up to four-minutes. After crossing northern Mexico, totality will sweep across the U.S. from Texas to Maine before heading into southeastern Canada and on to the North Atlantic.
