Daily Mail - Science & tech 

Two months before the first total solar eclipse to cross the continental United States in a century, NASA has revealed its plans to study and promote a celestial show that will darken skies from Oregon to South Carolina. During the Aug. 21 eclipse, the moon will pass between the sun and Earth, blocking the face of the sun and leaving only its outer atmosphere, or corona, visible in the sky. It is the first coast-to-coast total eclipse since 1918 - and NASA has creraqted a pair of eclipse posters to celebrate the occasion. To celebrate the upcoming eclipse, NASA has also created these retro posters to mark the occasion,. The space agency said viewers around the world will be provided a wealth of images captured before, during, and after the eclipse by 11 spacecraft, at least three NASA aircraft, more than 50 high-altitude balloons, and the astronauts aboard the International Space Station – each offering a unique vantage point for the celestial event.
