A rare total solar eclipse has begun in several North American countries. The eclipse was first witnessed by residents of Mazatlan, Mexico. The eclipse starts at 2:07 PM Eastern Time Zone. At this time the moon completely covers the sun. At that time, the area became dark, according to the British media BBC. Total solar eclipse lasted more than 4 minutes.
On Monday (April 8), the cosmic spectacle was seen live only from the United States, Canada and Mexico. The waiting common people cheered at that time.
After that, due to the gradual removal of the shadow of the moon, the eclipse will be visible in Texas, USA at 1:27 pm local time.
Thousands of people gathered in various parts of Texas wearing special glasses to enjoy the solar eclipse. Scientists cautioned that no one should witness it with the naked eye because it can cause eye problems.
