I'll post my video of the eclipse soon. Anyone know of a superior posting platform other than Igmur? Used it years ago, what a pain in the ass. Like pulling teeth.

Get a GRIP on your OCD, Rick

Sorry, dude... I can't talk right now. I'm busy loading some new memes onto my Imgur account.
It's as easy as Sunday morning.

It was overcast for much of the morning but we lucked out and the clouds broke up

Yep. We lucked out when the clouds broke just seconds before the total eclipse.

A lot of hotels cashed in on a non-event in a lot of cities including Niagara falls.

I hope you all enjoyed the event. I do not get the hype.

This is my second one. Novelty wore off 50 years ago.

Once you've missed "The Rapture" twice, does life even have meaning anymore?

I hope you all enjoyed the event. I do not get the hype.

I think it is the rarity of it, along with the fact that we absolutely know its coming and exactly at what moment in time (unlike an earthquake or tornado or volcano) and nothing can be done to stop it, or delay it or change the date. People have lined up for 160 years and waited every hour for Old Faithful to erupt. I would think the hype would be easily understood.

At least I got to see the world before it went to shit.

Meh, seems like a pretty insignificant event, however rare.

Plus people fail to realize how rare it is in the Universe to have a planet with a single moon (more than one would screw up the orbits) at the exact distance away to create a total solar eclipse. Go back several million years (a fraction of a second compared to Earth's 4.5 Billion years) and it's too close. Go forward several million years and it will be too far away. Goldilocks if you will like our distance from the Sun.

Don't despair though. There will be a Total Lunar Eclipse visible in Texas on March 3, 2026. It will be visible in every city in Texas (I think) and it will last over 3 hours (Totality last about 1 hour). The moon doesn't go completely dark when the earth blocks the sun's light. It will become sort of a red color. I think they call it a blood moon.

They're not that rare, dude.
There will be 68 total eclipses of the sun in the 21st century. 72 annular eclipises.

the problem is that most of them are only visible from the ocean.

the next one visible from the united states is in 2044. and i will be honest, i don't think it would have been worth it unless you were within that lane of totality. and even that probably wasn't worth much unless you had it for a minute or so. which starts to narrow down the area pretty small.

so, technically, unless there is a lunar eclipse there is a solar eclipse happening every second of every day.

No.

sure there is. you just have to be on either land, sea or in space to see it. nothing rare about it.

And when the moon is on the other side of Earth from the sun?

then the moon is still blocking the sun, you'd just have to go up in a rocket to see the eclipse.

And as usual, you aren't listening to what I'm saying. I didn't say that Solar/Lunar eclipses are rare. I said that our planets alignment with our lone Moon in this tight time window is certainly very rare among planets in the Universe.

Why don’t you drive out and watch the next one over the ocean? (Fucking voice to text)

Actually, given the number of planets and stars in the universe I'm sure it's not all that rare at all.

Agree. With 100's of Billion of Stars and what? Trillion planets just in the Milky Way Galaxy, rare is a relative term. You just get the hunch there is someone halfway across, 5th planet from Sargon V on a social media site calling himself Animal and wishing there was some nudes online of Kate Beckinsale.
