20th century. The total solar eclipse of June 8, 1918 crossed the United States from Washington State to Florida. This path is roughly similar to the August 21, 2017 total solar eclipse and was the last time totality crossed the nation from the Pacific to the Atlantic.
The last total solar eclipse visible from the continental United States was in 1979, and it was only over a corner of the Pacific Northwest. Something like this summerâs event, where so many people on land can see a total solar eclipse, is exceptionally rare â although the United States actually will experience another one, crossing an opposite diagonal swath of the country, in 2024.
