A once-in-a-lifetime solar eclipse fell over parts of eastern and central Canada, the U.S. and Mexico on Monday, prompting crowds to gather in its path for the chance to view the rare celestial event.
The eclipse hit Ontario from the south just before 2 p.m. EDT on Monday, and departed Newfoundland just after 5 p.m. EDT, or 6:30 p.m. NDT.
Hot spots like Niagara Falls and Kingston, Ont., Montreal, Que., and Fredericton, N.B., got maximum coverage with some experiencing the eclipse's effects for as long as three and a half minutes as the moon passes between the sun and Earth - even as Niagara Falls sadly experienced cloud coverage.
While the next solar eclipse is expected to pass through Western provinces in 20 years, the phenomenon only occurs in any given location once every 360 years by some estimates.
