Tomorrow on Monday, 8 April, a solar eclipse will take place, with those living in parts of Mexico, North America and Canada set to witness the rare cosmic event.
While partial eclipses - in which the sun is only partly covered - can happen as much as five times a year, a total solar eclipse is much more rare and occurs when the moon completely covers the face of the sun.
But will we be able to catch it over here in the UK?
How to watch the total solar eclipse in the US
The total eclipse is taking place in the US on 8 April, and is expected to be visible from Mexico through to Canada.

Depending on the weather, the first location that will experience totality is Mexico’s Pacific coast - which will happen at around 11.07am (PDT).
The eclipse will then be visible through Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine.
It will then be visible from Canada in Southern Ontario, moving through Quebec, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Cape Breton.
How to watch the partial solar eclipse in the UK
If you live in the west of the UK or Ireland, the best viewing time will be from 7.52pm to 8.51pm, but we'll be seeing a partial eclipse instead, which is when the sun is only partially covered.
It will be visible in the likes of Cardiff, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester and parts of Cornwall.
Essentially, if you live in the west of the UK, you may get a view of a partial eclipse in the evening.
There will be a very short window to catch a glimpse, and those in Ireland are expected to be more likely to see it due to a later sunset time.
Of course, the weather forecast will impact this, and if it's cloudy or rainy it will be much harder to spot.
If it's not visible where you are, don't forget you can usually catch some live coverage online.
If you do manage to spot it, remember you should never stare at an eclipse directly.
Experts recommend solar eclipse glasses to block UV rays that could be harmful.
The last total solar eclipse in Britain occurred way back in 1999.
And in case you were wondering, the next total solar eclipse in the UK won't be until 23 September, 2090.
There is a partial eclipse on 29 March next year, however.
