As of September 28, 2010, the next total solar eclipse will occur on November 13, 2012. It will be visible from a few places in far northern Australia. After that, the next total solar eclipse will be on March 20, 2015, covering a remote path across the North Atlantic through the Iceland/UK gap and into the Norwegian Sea. The island of Spitzbergen will have an excellent view!

Update: As of today (May 30 2012) the "next" total solar eclipse will be on November 13, 2012. The path of totality will include the northern tip of Australia and a vast swath of the South Pacific Ocean.

The next total solar eclipse in North America will be on August 21, 2017. The path of totality will cross the entire country from Salem, Oregon to Charleston, South Carolina.

About 4.4 billion years ago, when the Sun was new and the solar system was filled with half-formed planets and debris, another planet possibly as large as Mars collided with the proto-Earth. We believe that the cores of the two planets merged, and that the collision debris blasted into space came together to form the Moon.

The first solar eclipse happened soon after, the first time that the shadow of the Moon fell on the Earth. Of course, the Earth was probably still completely molten from the heat of the collision, and there wasn't any life for at least a billion years after that.
The first solar eclipse occurred when the moon was aligned between the Sun and the Earth. Billions of years ago. That was so long ago that there were no human beings on Earth (evolution had not progressed so far yet).
