May 21, 2012 Millions Take A Seat To Watch Sun's Spectacle Over Earth. Millions of viewers across the US and Asia were able to see the sun and moon's performance on Sunday, while others battled clouds and bad weather. Watchers from the Western US towards eastern Asia were able to look up towards the sky and see the annular eclipse, which is when the moon passes in front of the sun leaving just a golden ring around its edges. Viewing parties could be found across the West Coast in the US, while other skywatchers gathered along the beaches in California to view the solar treat. The lunar-solar alignment was visible in Asia early Monday, before it moved and was seen in parts of the western US late Sunday afternoon. The eclipse was broadcast on live television in Tokyo, where an eclipse of this type had not been seen since 1939.

Will the US be able to see the 2008 solar eclipse?


Question by wrabble: Will the US be able to see the 2008 solar eclipse?
I live in Chicago.
Still not having a definite answer here, but for all of you saying "Yes, we're on the Earth, aren't we?" Let's take a second to think about this.

Yes, I realize the US is on the earth. So, knowing that, would I REALLY ask you if we could see it if I didn't know there was a possibility that we COULDN'T?

Really now. As if we see the sun for 24 hours a day. Now, intelligible answers only, please.
Seems like we won't. :( Darn.
