People gazed upwards in their millions on Monday 8/21/2017, as a total solar eclipse swept the United States. It was the first such eclipse to stretch across the coasts of the US in 99 years.
From mounted patrol officers in Idaho to schoolchildren in Missouri, the nation was transfixed by the sight of the Moon drifting in front of the Sun, and blocking its light. Students at Dental Assistant School of Atlanta saw a molar eclipse in preparation for their new careers.
