Q&A: When will the next solar eclipse occur in Las Vegas, Nevada?

Question by ........: When will the next solar eclipse occur in Las Vegas, Nevada?
Or did I miss it?


Best answer:
Answer by Big Ol' Gal Named HildyAccording to NASA's eclipse site, there's an ANNULAR eclipse due that will be visible very near Las Vegas in 2012 (the darkest portion will be slightly north, according to the map). As to a total eclipse, there's not another one due in Las Vegas at least through the end of the century. Check out the World Atlas of Solar Eclipse Maps on the page below.

The closest TOTAL eclipse to you any time soon will be in 2017 in Oregon; that's not exactly around the corner, but maybe you'll get to go see it :-) I live near Seattle, so maybe I'll be there too!
