Skywatchers may have two chances to witness an eclipse in August. Here's when they will occur, where they'll be visible and what to expect.

Celestial bodies will put on a show in August. There will be both a lunar eclipse and a solar eclipse, and they're both very different. Here's how.

While millions will watch the August 12 eclipse from the ground, a flying laboratory will chase the Moon's shadow at 50,000 feet.

From meteor showers to solar eclipses and important space launches, August has a stellar lineup.

A spectacular total solar eclipse will take place on Aug. 12, as the moon's vast silhouette passes across the solar disk, completely blocking its light across a 182-mile-wide (293-kilometer) swathe of Greenland, Iceland and Spain during the climactic phase of totality.

A partial solar eclipse will be visible in the Washington DC area on August 12. When will it happen, and how much of the sun will be covered?

For the first time in more than a century, a total solar eclipse is coming to mainland Spain with an even longer encore next summer.
