Science educator Bill Nye breaks down the sights and sounds we can expect to experience during the total solar eclipse that will darken skies for millions across North America


.People across the United States will be looking to the sky on Monday to witness a total solar eclipse. Others will be listening to it.


 And to Harvard University astronomers working to transform the rare sight into sound, the eclipse should create a symphony.


  “We mapped the bright light of the sun to a flute sound,” said Allyson Bieryla, an astronomer at Harvard. “Then it goes to a midrange, which is a clarinet, and then during totality, it kind of goes down to a low clicking sound, and that clicking even slows down during totality.”
