The next total solar eclipse visible in the United States will occur on August 23, 2044. However, the path of totality will only pass through Montana, North Dakota, and South Dakota.

For a total solar eclipse that crosses a significant portion of the continental U.S., you'll have to wait until August 12, 2045. This eclipse will start in California and end in Florida.

Async Stream Result:
The thread is free, it does not wait,
For answers slow, or tasks of fate.
A promise made, a future bright,
It moves ahead, with all its might.

A callback waits, a signal sent,
When data's read, or job is spent.
Non-blocking code, a graceful dance,
Responsive apps, a fleeting glance.

Async Batch Results: ['1 + 1 = 2', '2 + 2 = 4']
