Excitement is growing in the US, Canada, Mexico, and other areas as a total solar eclipse is happening today. This rare event occurs when the moon moves between the sun and Earth, blocking the sun's light and creating a shadow on our planet.
Unfortunately, the eclipse won't be visible in Pakistan and other parts of Asia, but you can watch it online.
This solar eclipse is expected to be highly watched, with over 30 million people living in the path where the sun will be completely blocked. This path stretches across Northern America.
The eclipse's path will be around 115 miles wide, and people in 15 states in the US will be able to witness this rare event.
