While California is witnessing only a partial eclipse, 14 states between Mazatlán, Mexico and Newfoundland, Canada, get to witness a total or near-total eclipse, according to NASA.

Many travelers took to LAX and other airports to get a better view of the phenomenon, which NASA said the U.S. won’t experience again for 20 years.
