The US Naval Observatory has this information. Each eclipse in the table has a map you can click on to see where on Earth it could be seen.

A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes in front of the Sun and obscures it totally or partially. This configuration can only occur at New Moon, when the Sun and Moon are in conjunction, as seen from Earth. A total solar eclipse is considered by many to be the most spectacular natural phenomenon that one can observe.\n\nHow scientist know that there is going to be an eclipse? because they know the line of path the moon and earth is moving and its speed and stuffs.

Imagine how hard it is to try to teach High Schoolers anything about the planets when one of them has a name like this! But anyway, go to NASA's website. There is a place there where you can find anything worth seeing at any location. It will even tell you when stuff like the Space Station will fly overhead. And most telescopes come with locating software if you ever get that involved. I hope you will. It seems like we never learn much about space, but it has taken a long time to get as far as we are now.

The leonids peak 04:35 and 05:00 UT on 19th November, so I guess it should be around 2035 (8:35pm) and 21:00 (9.00pm)Pacific Standard Time on 18th November.\n\nBut thats not important. All you have to do is to start your observation, from a clear dark sky, around or after midnight and try to keep a watch the skies in the eastern direction. You will be rewarded with meteors. The frequency will increase as day break approaches.\n\nBest wishes

The next Total Solar eclipse visible in Canada is August 1, 2008 in Nunavut. \n\nYour best bet would be to book a cruise since much of the eclipse is over water.\n\nHere are two links to travel groups planning to cruise this eclipse.

The next solar eclipse in California, will be on May 20, 2012. The Sun in Los Angeles will be 85% covered by the Moon. The next one after that is another partial eclipse of 45% in L.A. on Oct 23, 2014. There will be a Total Solar Eclipse on Aug. 21, 2017, but it's path travels from the Pacific ocean, over Salem OR.,Casper WY., Lincoln NE., just missing Nashville TN.,and then goes over Columbia and Charleston SC., and then out over the Atlantic.\n\nThe maximum time that the Sun will be covered by the Moon is 2 minutes and 40 seconds over Western Kentucky.\n\nSorry, the next total solar eclipse in California (Northern California) is on Aug 12, 2045.  Boo Hoo!!!

ok...this is a little complicated. when there is a solar eclipse, only a certain section of the earth can see it because of the angle of light from the sun going around the moon. i cant remember the terminology, but if you look it up on the internet, you could probably find it.
