Would you like to see a total solar eclipse? Use the FREE app, Totality by Big Kid Science, to learn about upcoming eclipses around the world, including the 2024 eclipse in the U.S. and Mexico, and much more.  Totality's awesome features include:

  • An interactive map that shows exactly what you’ll see at any location in the world for the next 5 total solar eclipses, including upcoming eclipses in South America and the next USA eclipse on April 8, 2024. (Maps based on eclipse code graciously provided by Xavier Jubier.)
  • Using your phone's GPS, the app will tell you what you'll see for these eclipses at your current location, as well as showing you the nearest locations where you can witness TOTALITY.
  • For the 2024 eclipse, the app offers navigation tools to help you find your best route to the path of Totality.
  • The Learn screen offers option that will help you learn how, when, and why eclipses occur, as well as classroom activities, links to maps for upcoming solar and lunar eclipses through 2030 (and in some cases beyond), and more.
  • The Shop screen offers fantastic books about space and science, eclipse glasses (which you can use to look at the Sun at any time, not just during an eclipse), and links to some of our favorite  space education non-profits.
  • And it's all absolutely free, including no ads, brought to you as a public service by Big Kid Science.

Totality by Big Kid Science is available for iOS and Android in both English and Spanish. Watch the app preview video below; you may also enjoy reading this Huff Post blog about the app, or the article on p. 29 of the first issue of the new Popular Astronomy digital magazine.
