Why the Total Solar Eclipse in 2024 Is a Must-See Event

There are four different types of solar eclipses, where the moon casts a dark shadow on the Earth that either partially or completely covers the sun as people on Earth observe it. Witnessing a total solar eclipse is an ethereal experience where the sun is completely covered. Total solar eclipses happen roughly once every 18 months but can only be seen in certain locations. Garner State Park in the Concan, TX, area is one of the best spots to see the total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024.
