After Monday, the next total solar eclipse viewable from the lower 48 states will be on Aug. 23, 2044. Here's a look at the projected path.

The US won’t catch a glimpse of a total solar eclipse again until March 30, 2033, and even then the Russia-centric path includes only Alaska, with totality lasting 2 minutes and 37 seconds.

Much has been said about the fact that a total solar eclipse won’t be visible again from the contiguous US until August 22, 2044, but totality will only occur over North Dakota and Montana.
