On Monday, August 21st residents of just 10 states —and the millions of travelers making the trip for the chance to see a rare phenomenon—will be able to witness the full totality of a solar eclipse. The totality window spans a mere 70 miles wide. Astronomer Bob Berman touches on the spectacular beauty of a total eclipse compared to a partial eclipse.
