In the U.S., millions of people had the opportunity to observe the total solar eclipse, the first in nearly a century that stretched from coast to shore.
The complete eclipse ended in South Carolina.
People wondered how the moon completely blocked the sun, turning the day into almost dusk.
The full impact of the moon lasted about 2 minutes in each of the countries where the eclipse could be seen, in the narrow corridor extending across the entire continental American territory from Oregon, Charleston, South Carolina.
In total, the eclipse lasted about 90 minutes throughout the country.
Numerous towns and parks on the path of the eclipse were filled with people who welcomed this rare event with applause and applause.
The last crossing from coast to coast in the United States occurred in 1918.
