Total eclipse: millions of curious people attended the spectacle

Total eclipses only occur every twenty years. The light goes out for a few minutes. In the United States, Mexico and Haiti, the phenomenon has attracted curious people.
It is 2:07 p.m. in Mexico when the moon begins its path to hide the sun. In Mazatlan crowds gathered to witness the solar eclipse, a spectacular celestial event that plunges the seaside city into darkness. The applause of the amazed crowd is heard. The eclipse crosses the United States. In Hawaii, a few curious people are in the front row facing the sea, but with their eyes fixed on the sky.
30 million people live in the area
According to NASA, 30 million people live in the area where the solar eclipse is total, such as Texas. Further north in Cleveland (Ohio), Americans in a stadium did not come to support their baseball team in the city’s stadium, but they came to admire the disappearance of the sun.
