On August 21, you'll be able to stream the "first coast-to-coast total solar eclipse in 99 years" live on Facebook. If you live in the US, you can also just walk outside and look up — as long as you're wearing a pair of protective glasses, that is.

From supermassive black holes to interacting galaxies, here are the 27 most breathtaking photos of space we found:
