The phenomenon will not be visible from Italy, but only from North and Central America, from Mexico to Canada. The show will start when it is 5.42pm here and will end at 10.52pm.
The maximum duration of the totality phase will be close to 4 and a half minutes. It will be a golden opportunity for enthusiasts and researchers, such as those from the National Institute of Astrophysics who are preparing to fly overseas to 'paparase' the Sun.
