life is so short and little things like this make me appreciate how lucky i am to be alive

4:17 I am just SO overcome with emotion right now!!! I watched from here in Cleveland, Ohio and I saw the moon completely cover the sun!!! I saw Bailey's Beads and the Diamond Ring. I didn't see the planets Jupiter and Venus or the comet because I was so mesmerized and engrossed in just looking upon this Heavenly Show!!! Awe inspiring moment...words don't do it justice!!! I stood and stared and cried!!!! As soon as the moon covered the sun there were fireworks going off around me!! I saw the Sun's corona as it glowed around the moon. I even saw on the bottom some orange/red/pink solar flares. Everything around me was a dark gray. I will never get to experience this again in my lifetime. It was beautiful....majestic.....surreal. My daughter and her friends sent me pictures of this Total Solar Eclipse. W...O...W!!! I don't have the best camera on my phone so I'm glad that I have these pictures. I'm using one as my background screen. I'm still emotional and I don't think I will ever stop being this way. 😮😊🥰🌞🌝🌑

Watching an eclipse on TV misses so much. If you are ever near a path of totality, and have the means I would highly recommend going to witness at least one total eclipse in person in your life.

Sure would've been nice if CNN took down that massive "BREAKING NEWS" banner that covered part of the eclipse.

2024: "Moments of joy, people yelling in spanish" A century ago: *MOMENTS OF HORROR, PEOPLE YELLING IN SPANISH!!1*

I was at Homestead Heritage, just north of Waco and the clouds threatened but just before totality the sky cleared and we witnessed the last couple of minute prior to totality and totality with clear skies. We were so very blessed with that good fortune. For myself and my wife, it was our third eclipse, having been to the total eclipse in 2017 in Nebraska and the Annular Eclipse in 2023 in New Mexico. This was the best. It was the most awe inspiring thing I have ever seen. One thing that people really forget about these events; it is the one time where you can have a reference point in the sky and actually see the movement of the moon in its orbit around Earth. The sky turns from the most bizarre twilight that you have ever seen into almost total darkness in a second and you can see other things in the night sky in the middle of the day. We had a beautiful view of Venus, just to the right of the eclipse. To those young enough to wait around till 2045 when the United States gets to witness another total eclipse, make sure you do not waste that opportunity.........see it. It is OMG breathtaking!

A good place to be

We traveled to my brother's house in Conneaut Lake, Pennsylvania where we had 2.5 minutes fo totality. We started off the day with rain and clouds, but as we got closer to totality the clouds began to move behind us. Minutes before totality the sky opened up and we had a crystal clear view. This was the first time getting to see full interrupted totality and it was absolutely breathtaking! The sky darkened and the temperature began to drop, and then totality and the diamond ring. We all just stood there in awe looking at the sky. I got a little emotional as I looked around. I saw totality in Myrtle Beach in 2017, but we had some light cloud coverage, so we didn't get the full totality experience. I am so thankful that the weather turned around for us yesterday. Truly spectacular!! I now understand why people chase these.

It says zilch about your "god" obsession. It's just huge rocks (Earth and the Moon) and a ball of plasma (the Sun) orbiting in space. It so happens periodically that because of their size and distance from each other as well as the laws of physics that they get aligned, producing a solar eclipse on some parts of the Earth. If "god" existed, he would have no use for producing cheap tricks, such as eclipses.
