The duration of the solar eclipse in the U.S. is expected to be double that of The Great American Eclipse.
The total solar eclipse in August of last year was watched by 20 million people from Oregon to South Carolina, but the total solar eclipse in August of next year will be watched by millions more.
There are 32 million people living in the US section of the path. In states such as Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri, Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine, there are many metro areas. Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington, D.C. are just a short distance from the path of totality.
Hotels and camping spots sold out way in advance of the eclipse in the path of totality, but also in nearby spots.
The next North American Solar Eclipse will take place in some top destinations.
The co-owners of Great American Eclipse are going to travel to Texas for the next solar eclipse.
The couple has traveled around the world to view solar eclipses. There have been 10 total solar eclipses, three of which were fully blocking the sun, and White has seen six total eclipses.
It is near the center of the path of totality and most of Texas has good odds of having clear skies on eclipse day that we chose to view in Fredericksburg, Texas. Should there be clouds, we want to be mobile so that we can drive if we need to.
It wasn't ideal if they had to drive to another destination in the event of unfavorable conditions.
They won't be alone in Texas. People are going to Texas. White says that most of Texas is a good choice for people over the age of 50. In case of clouds, Texas has great road networks in every direction out of each of the major cities. There's a lot of support for that community.
The last Great American Eclipse saw huge traffic jams after everyone left at the same time, so it is best to travel a day or two before and after.
The travel schedule isn't an option for everyone. She says the couple will be busy getting out orders of solar eclipse viewing glasses and other products until the last moment. They will take their dog with them on the drive from New Mexico to Texas.
White said they would stay a couple of days in order to avoid traffic jams. In the Fredericksburg area, we chose anAirbnb.

We chose this location because we were lucky enough to see the partial solar eclipse in 2017: Although we won't be able to see the total eclipse from here, we are very comfortable in the location. Watching an eclipse from the water is an out of body experience for me.
The couple decided on several factors. As my wife has type 1 diabetes, it is always best for us to travel to familiar locations. We decided to stay with our family in Texas so we could see the eclipse.
