The only places you can see the eclipse from the ground include Indonesia, Australia, southern Asia, Hawaii, and Alaska. But you don't need to travel the globe to catch the astronomical spectacle.
NASA and a site called Slooh will stream live video of the event, which officially begins on Tuesday, March 8 at 6:19 p.m. ET, and we've embedded their video players below.
Here's how to watch.
Live feed #1: Slooh
Tech Insider recommends watching Slooh's feed, and not just because it will show the eclipse a full hour ahead of NASA's feed.
The company has partnered with more than two dozen observatories from all around the world, allowing them to record and stream almost any astronomical event.
Slooh fills their broadcasts with helpful commentary from a rotating cast of astronomers and other experts, giving you the low-down on what's going on and why.
Their feed will be recorded from Indonesia (one of the first locations to see Tuesday's eclipse) and broadcast through YouTube. It should go live around 6 p.m. ET and the eclipse will peak in totality starting at 7:37 p.m. ET.
But tune in sooner than that to watch the eclipse progress and absorb the helpful information. Slooh's feed should stay live through about 9 p.m. ET:
You can follow chatter about the Slooh feed on Twitter through the hashtag #ShadeUp.
Live feed #2: NASA TV (Public)
If you miss Slooh's feed — or are looking for an encore — tune into NASA TV's public feed.
The space agency may lack the energy of Slooh's hosts, but if you're looking for something a little less chatty, sort of like watching a golf game on television, this is your kind of webcast.
NASA TV broadcasts through a LiveStream account. Their coverage should start around 8 p.m. ET, and you can expect to see totality on their feed starting at 8:38 p.m. ET (but again, tune in sooner than that):
NASA's official hashtag on Twitter for the eclipse will be #eclipse2016.
Live feed #3: NASA TV (Educational)
This is the same feed as the one above, but it starts an hour earlier, at 7 p.m. ET, and won't have any commentary or audio.
