BETHLEHEM — The summer solstice on Tuesday, June 21, is an auspicious date. It begins the almost two-year countdown to the total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024, when residents and visitors to northern New Hampshire will have the opportunity to see a total eclipse of the sun.

With 100 percent totality in northern towns like Colebrook and Pittsburg and 95 percent totality in the rest of the state, New Hampshire is expecting an influx of thousands of visitors to view this amazing once-in-a-lifetime event.
