A total solar eclipse is currently sweeping across North America.
Millions of people across the US, Mexico and Canada will be able to see the moon block the sun.
In some places, the total eclipse lasts more than four minutes.
Scientists will also be using the eclipse to conduct experiments – to learn more about our closest star.
Al Jazeera’s John Hendren is in Indianapolis which is just about to experience totality.
Chris Impey is Distinguished Professor of Astronomy at the University of Arizona.
