Did you see the total solar eclipse? If you were one of the lucky ones with cloudless skies on Monday (April 8), you might be hooked on eclipse chasing for the rest of your life. And if you were one of the unlucky ones stuck under clouds, well, there's always next time. But when is that next time? If you're willing to travel abroad, not that long: two years and change. But if you want to stay in the U.S., you'll be waiting a while: nearly a decade.

Las Vegas isn’t on the direct path of today’s solar eclipse, but the partial covering will still be a sight worth seeing, says Francisco Silva, vice president for outreach at the Las Vegas Astronomical Society.

While it may have only been a partial solar eclipse for Southern Nevada, Monday's celestial event was a crowd-pleaser for hundreds of locals who showed up for a big watch party at the College of Southern Nevada (CSN).

You've probably seen the viral videos where planes appear to be frozen in the sky, hovering in place rather than flying forward as they usually do. While some are quick to call the situation a glitch in the matrix, there's a fairly simple explanation: It's an optical illusion due to the parallax effect.

Home gardeners can expect to observe these changes during the upcoming eclipse

We've all heard of the Northern Lights that sparkle in the Northern Hemisphere, but did you know that there is also a counterpart in the Southern Hemisphere?

“There’s just something about the moon blocking the sun that intrigues people, and me too,” a UNLV student commented Thursday morning on campus when asked about the solar eclipse on Monday. But, how much of the moon’s coverage of the sun will depend on where you are.

I first glimpsed the northern lights on a red-eye flight across the Atlantic. Just a few pale wisps in the night sky were enough to get me hooked on the celestial phenomenon, and my aurora chasing has since brought me to Greenland, Iceland, and Churchill, Canada. Now, my sights are set on their even more elusive counterpart: the southern lights, or aurora australis.
