REDONDO BEACH, CA— Excitement is building in Redondo Beach for the Monday, April 8 total solar eclipse. We’re among about 32 million people living in the path of totality for the celestial sensation.
In the United States, the path of totality extends from Texas to Maine, but each of the 48 continental states will see some of the solar eclipse, which occurs when the moon slips between our bright star and Earth. In Redondo Beach, the moon will cover about 49.6 percent of the sun at the peak of the eclipse, according to a NASA map that is searchable by ZIP code.
Here are the details:
Partial eclipse begins: 10:05 a.m.
Totality begins: 10:35 a.m.
Maximum: 11:11 a.m.
Totality ends: 11:49 a.m.
Partial ends: 12:22 p.m.
