this eclipse only being visible to one half of the planet should put an end to all that flat earth debate, right?....right?!?
-
There was a solar eclipse where I live when I was 7. Our class spent the whole week preparing for it, handing out those glasses etc. when the day of the eclipse arrived… we had the thickest fog I had ever witnessed. Couldn’t see neither sun nor moon. The newspaper the next day published a "photo of the solar eclipse" in our town the next day, which was just a blank white image.

I live directly in the path of totality and it was SO cool! It immediately felt like nighttime and it got way colder too. I also saw the crescent shaped shadows! It was such a cool experience, especially knowing a full total eclipse wont happen in the same area for another 400 years!

I live in Canada and when it happened, thick clouds covered the sky so we couldn’t see the solar eclipse. But right after it happened, the sky cleared up and had a perfect sunny weather. 😢

When I was in college 30 years ago I took an astronomy class and the professor was an eclipse chaser. I hope she has a good spot to see this one.
-
I hope to see a total solar eclipse in my lifetime, it sounds incredible.
-
Yeah the eclipse was a bummer in San Antonio TX! It was way too cloudy! 😕😭
-
Sad I live outside the path, and have no chance to get there. I am a fan of space and a total solar eclipse would be insane for me to see. Anyone who sees it, I wish you have a great time.

I’m in Cleveland and we got to see the total eclipse! You immediately feel the temperature drop, wind picks up, and we could look at the sun without eclipse glasses when the moon is exactly over it. It looks insane in person. Photos don’t do it justice. I’m so grateful I got to experience this :)

The sun and moon together is called Corona The virus: I guess you wonder where I've been

It was fun bc my Dad told us to come to his work, me, his coworkers who are like my family, and my parents watched it together. Moments where people come together laughing or in a sense of awe are so cool and moments I'll remember forever.
-
Going right over my house, and the math says it’s won’t go over again for another 300 years. Wild.
-
It's so sad that my area completly misses the solar eclipses for like another 100 years or even more😭. But I did experience 2 partial solar eclipses, but one was on a cloudy day

I got to see it this Monday , April 8th, here in Quebec and my goodness it was so worth missing my French exam
-
I was in the path of totality during the 2017 eclipse. Don't miss it if you're near. It's pretty amazing.

Not a coincidence. Almighty God is amazing.

The fact it was on my birthday made it 10 times cooler 😂

Me who lives in south asia: 💀👍
