southeast of Manila on May 21, 2012. Thousands turned their eyes to the sky on both sides of the Pacific to gaze excitedly as a partial eclipse occluded the sun at dawn in Asia and at dusk in the western US.

The Moon will consequently be too small to cover all of the Sun.
You can even do a countdown to yourself and then watch the eclipse start. “It’s a moment to reflect on how phenomenal are our advancements in understanding the Universe,” said Faherty. “We make these predictions and they come true—and we can see it happen!”
