    The moon passes in front of the sun during the Solar Eclipse as viewed in Washington, D.C., Aug. 21 2017. The moon passes between the sun and Earth and blocks all or part of the sun for up to about three hours, from beginning to end, as viewed from a given location. For this eclipse, the longest period when the moon completely blocks the sun from any given location along the path will be about two minutes and 40 seconds. The last time the contiguous U.S. saw a total eclipse was in 1979. (DoD Photo by U.S. Army Sgt. James K. McCann)
