Yaquina Head Lighthouse in Newport, Oregon was the [first location on continental US soil to see totality](https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/solar/2017-august-21-first). The partial phase of the eclipse started here at 9:04 am local time, totality occurred at 10:15 am. Other places on the coast of Oregon did not have to wait much longer for the onset of the eclipse. For example, in [Lincoln City](https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/in/usa/lincoln-city), Oregon just west of [Salem](https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/in/usa/salem), the partial and total phases of the eclipse started less than 20 seconds later than at Yaquina Head. [Where Was It Visible First and Last?](https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/solar/2017-august-21-first) From here, the [Moon's central shadow](https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/umbra-shadow.html) moved inland.

Readable Markdown	The total phase of this [total solar eclipse](https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/total-solar-eclipse.html) was visible from a narrow path spanning all across the USA from the West Coast to the East Coast (see map and local times below), [weather permitting](https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/). [9 reasons why this eclipse was noteworthy](https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/facts-solar-eclipse.html) In the surrounding areas, which include all of mainland United States and Canada, the total eclipse 2017 was a [partial solar eclipse](https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/partial-solar-eclipse.html). [Watch the recorded stream of the eclipse](https://www.timeanddate.com/live/) [See pictures of the eclipse](https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/solar/2017-august-21-photos) This eclipse was visible in New York - [go to local timings and animation](https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/in/usa/new-york?iso=20170821) ## What the Eclipse Looked Like Near the Maximum Point The animation shows what the eclipse approximately looked like near the maximum point. The curvature of the Moon's path is due to the Earth's rotation. Live Eclipse Animation will start at: Live Eclipse Animation has ended.

This eclipse was visible in New York - [go to local timings and animation](https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/in/usa/new-york?iso=20170821) ### Eclipse Shadow Path Portion of Sun covered by the Moon (Eclipse obscuration) 0% \>0% 40% 90% 100% The dark areas symbolize night and twilight. ## Eclipse Start & End: Local Time for US States The eclipse began over the Pacific Ocean at 15:46 [UTC](https://www.timeanddate.com/time/aboututc.html), which corresponds to [8:46 am Pacific Time](https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html?iso=20170821T154600&p1=1440&p2=202&p3=2104&p4=171&p5=62). Yaquina Head Lighthouse in Newport, Oregon was the [first location on continental US soil to see totality](https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/solar/2017-august-21-first). The partial phase of the eclipse started here at 9:04 am local time, totality occurred at 10:15 am. Other places on the coast of Oregon did not have to wait much longer for the onset of the eclipse. For example, in [Lincoln City](https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/in/usa/lincoln-city), Oregon just west of [Salem](https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/in/usa/salem), the partial and total phases of the eclipse started less than 20 seconds later than at Yaquina Head. [Where Was It Visible First and Last?](https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/solar/2017-august-21-first) From here, the [Moon's central shadow](https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/umbra-shadow.html) moved inland. The following table shows when the Moon started to move in front of the Sun and the moment it completely covers the Sun, as seen from some locations along the central path of the eclipse.

A solar eclipse always occurs about two weeks before or after a lunar eclipse. Usually, there are two eclipses in a row, but other times, there are three during the same eclipse season. [All eclipses 1900 — 2199](https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/list.html) This is the second eclipse this season.
