thing I ever did right.
Author’s Note
Every eclipse mentioned in this story has occurred or will occur. The dates and locations are accurate as is the length of totality mentioned at each event. I could not have written this tale without the incredible resource of the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center’s Solar Eclipse Search Engine. Paired with Google Maps it allows for every eclipse (lunar, solar, total, partial, hybrid) to be plotted on the map and provides the start time, end time and totality for every location you click on. From 2000 BCE to 3000 CE, five thousand years of eclipses are at your fingertips.
Thank you to the researchers and programmers who put this together. Take a look and find out when the next eclipse will be visible from where you live.
