Monday August 21, 2017 saw millions of people unite in North America as well as other parts in what was a staring contest of some kind — but they weren’t staring at each other.
They were staring at the sky trying to get a glimpse of the solar eclipse, of course.
And it wasn’t just any eclipse — the total solar eclipse has been named the ‘Great American Eclipse.’
