Question by Corie: Does anyone know when the next solar eclipse will occur?
I live in Arkansas, so can anyone tell me when the moon blocks out the sun for couple of minutes?

People, read her question---she wants to know when she can see it at her home. Unless she can travel to other parts of the earth, she will have to wait until 2017. Nice link Mark but it still is not in the USA. I guess that the thumbs down person cant read a question in its entirety.

This is a map of the next one that will completely eclipse over the USA in 2017. There will be others before but not over the USA. I will be in Stanely Idaho! See you there!
(From spaceweather.com)
On Aug. 21, 2017, there will be a total eclipse of the sun directly above the continental United States. Graphic artist Larry Koehn created this animated preview:

The path of totality crosses hundreds of US towns and cities including Salem, Kansas City, St. Louis, and Nashville. Residents of those places can experience the cool sweep of the Moon's shadow and the ghostly, shimmering solar corona without even leaving their own back yard. But many people will travel--to Kentucky. A spot just northwest of Hopkinsville KY will be in the Moon's shadow longer than any other, a full 2 minutes and 40 seconds. Eclipse chasers--people who once were normal, but now race to the four corners of the Earth to catch their next eclipse--say that's enough time to change your life.
