Google has joined in on the eclipse frenzy by adding a cool new animation that gives its users an interactive feel at their own leisure.

In the animation launched Friday, Google users who search about the eclipse can see a graphic overlay depicting what millions on the path of totality will see Monday: the moment when the moon passes between the sun and Earth, revealing just the sun's outermost layer called the corona.

“The moon is having its day in the sun, and people across North America are coming to Google to learn more and celebrate this rare event," Jessica Yu, Google's doodle team lead, told USA TODAY. "We’re excited to mark the 2024 solar eclipse with special experiences on Search for eclipse watchers.”

Yu said that a team of user experience designers created the animation to engage its users.

Science and technology lovers can enjoy the animation by searching specific keywords. Here's what we know.
