Total Eclipse 2024 Apr 08

This simulation shows the total eclipse of the sun on 8th April 2024, as seen from the following twelve different viewpoints.

Top row, left to right:

Los Angeles in the United States
Denver in the United States
Minneapolis in the United States
Ottawa in Canada

Middle row, left to right:

Mazatlán in Mexico
Dallas in the United States
Indianapolis in the United States
Niagara Falls in the United States / Canada

Bottom row, left to right:

Houston in the United States
Miami in the United States
Charleston in the United States
New York in the United States

The eclipse is total in the four locations in the middle row. The locations in the top row are all to the north-west of the track of totality, and the locations in the bottom row are all to the south-east of the track of totality. Lines of altitude and azimuth can be seen in the background.

If you set the simulation running, you can watch the eclipse progress at each of the twelve locations. Since different computers run at different speeds, you may need to edit the evolution time step to get the simulation to run at an acceptable rate.
