Total Solar Eclipse: Memes, Myths, Marketing Gimmicks | Vantage with Palki Sharma
A solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes between the Earth and the sun, blocking sunlight partially or completely. This celestial alignment casts a shadow on Earth, causing temporary darkness in the path of totality. This is a rare cosmic spectacle. It showcases the intricate dance of celestial bodies in our solar system. But that’s not all it can do. Here on Earth, it has fueled memes and jokes. More than that, there are conspiracy theories. Social media is rife with complaints about mood swings and animals behaving strangely. To top it off, there are myths across cultures. What is it about the solar eclipse? What makes it special?

Solar Eclipse is a major disturbance to the gravitational force between Sun and Earth. Earth has magma in its core, and so does the Sun. Therefore, earthquakes are more prominent around the Moon, Earth and Sun's alignments. The same goes for earthquakes when the Sun's spots are the most visible, as the Sun's poles are parallel with the plane where Earth orbits. Earthquakes of the highest magnitudes were recorded then. This phenomenon comes in cycles, every 11 years. These days this is primary school knowledge. Knowledge is Power. :)

Honestly I love sun, its punctual every day, takes no sick leaves, without him, even if he decides to disappear for 24hrs, entire human species and animal kingdom will collapse, just in 24hrs. *We wouldn't exist, our loved ones wouldn't exist. So cheering for an eclipse on sun just doesn't feel right in my heart regardless of all myths.* Eclipse does look beautiful but that is the nature of darkness, its always alluring and draws people towards it. Whereas we keep taking shining sun for granted. We owe our lives to the sun but people only see it as something that would give them a sunbath. *When was the last time you ever thanked sun?* I am a Hindu and I believe in giving arghya(offering of water) to Surya (Sun) everyday out of gratitude for nourishing my soul throughout so many lifetimes. And it truly changed my perspective. Om Surya Devay Namah🙏🏻
You forgot to mention the 7th century myth that a warlord cut moon into two pieces to prove prophethood . I believe this omission was deliberate since you want your head to remain on your shoulders
WE'RE SO LUCKY HERE IN MONTREAL ALMOST 90% WE'LL SEE IN ABOUT 10 MINUTES!!

Dont care.
If the total eclipse had occurred in Africa would it still mean "the end of the world", or this applies only in American events?. Yes the world is close to an end but I have witnessed several Eclipses in my lifetime.

Please talk proper strategy behind astrology.. it’s called Rahu the south node of moon which is eclipsing the sun. Rahu is desires. It can be good or bad. Bad leads to too much selfishness eg mass layoffs happening since months ago.. or self centric behaviour within families. Let’s direct the desires in right direction to use it for the right things.

It says before the eclipse that total darkness..so we're is the darkness in there hahahaha
I wonder if they intentionally made this video 4:20 long since they were talking about the memes that were going around.
Total eclipse of the heart.
Glasses probably rid🤔😇🥳
USA is blaming Russia for the solar eclipse
It is not moments, it was more than 4 minutes.
Indian Myth is the best 😅
It appeared in America only so yes the gods must really be angry.
What did the guy pulling out a gun of the drawer think he was going to shoot to be safe? A collapsing building? People with that level of panic don't need to be around guns.
Conspiracy theory about a grand astronomical phenomenon?! Only the Americans can conjure this up.
They will do it one but too late
I living in the Caribbean and i saw nothing. The sun was very bright and hot, we waited from about 6am till after 3pm and saw nothing, i don't know for other parts of the Caribbean but for where i am we saw nothing. Sun remained bright all day!

Amazing and beautiful or wonderful event??? The meaning of this is the start of tribulation, very bad happened and this is the last solar eclipsed, repent all sin and back to the Lord God before end..😢
Can't even cover the eclipse without taking a jab at Donald Trump. Is your viewership that bad?
_I viewed the eclipse live on FirstPost._ Do the math. Four million subscribers each buy a T-shirt with that slogan for one dollar apiece. A fabulous opportunity lost.
