I drove 4 hours from Olympia, Washington to Madras, Oregon to watch the eclipse. Camped out in a farmers field with a bunch of other people. Was amazing until we all tried to leave the field, was stuck in “traffic” for like 9 hours
Title: The Cosmic Ballet: Understanding the Solar Eclipse Introduction: The solar eclipse, a celestial phenomenon that has captured the imagination of humanity for millennia, continues to inspire awe and wonder. As the moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, casting its shadow upon our planet, we are treated to a breathtaking display of cosmic geometry. In this essay, we will explore the science behind solar eclipses, their cultural significance throughout history, their impact on society, and the future of eclipse observation and research. 1. The Science of Solar Eclipses: • Explanation of the solar eclipse phenomenon, including the alignment of the Sun, Earth, and Moon. • Different types of solar eclipses: total, partial, and annular. • Factors influencing the frequency and visibility of solar eclipses, such as lunar orbit and Earth’s tilt. 2. Historical Perspectives: • Ancient civilizations’ interpretations of solar eclipses, from fear and superstition to astronomical understanding. • Notable historical eclipses and their impact on societies, such as the eclipse during the Battle of Isandlwana in 1879. • Contributions of early astronomers, including ancient Greek, Chinese, and Mayan observations of eclipses. 3. Cultural Significance: • Religious and mythological interpretations of solar eclipses in various cultures, including creation myths and celestial omens. • Artistic representations of eclipses in literature, music, and visual arts. • Eclipse folklore and traditions, such as avoiding eating during an eclipse in some cultures. 4. Societal Impact: • Economic and tourism effects of solar eclipse events, such as the “eclipse chaser” phenomenon. • Scientific research opportunities during eclipses, including studies of the solar corona and atmospheric phenomena. • Educational and outreach initiatives surrounding eclipses, promoting public engagement with science and astronomy. 5. Future Prospects: • Advances in technology for observing and studying solar eclipses, including space-based telescopes and high-resolution imaging. • Predictions for future eclipse events and their potential cultural and scientific significance. • Challenges and opportunities for international collaboration in eclipse research and outreach efforts. Conclusion: The solar eclipse serves as a reminder of the interconnectedness of the cosmos and the profound beauty of the natural world. Through scientific inquiry, cultural appreciation, and societal engagement, we can continue to deepen our understanding of this awe-inspiring phenomenon and share its wonder with future generations. As we look to the future, let us embrace the ongoing journey of exploration and discovery, guided by the timeless spectacle of the solar eclipse.
Looking at the sun directly can burn the retinas in your eyes. You may not notice any issues at first, but as time goes by, you will start to have vision problems if the retinas do not heal on their own.
So the moon changed direction? Before total eclipse, the moon was moving to the left. After 3 minutes of total eclipse, it moved down? Give me a break. Solar Eclipse is not like what we have been told.
imagine the night will occur into the daylight , what if its remains night forever , at that moment who will bring day light to us but Allah ,(eclipse is a miracle made by Allah to remind us his existence cant you see !?)
Repent Repent the day of the Lord is at hand! If you have not received salvation from Jesus Christ you will spend all eternity (trillions and trillions) of years in hell. There will be everlasting torment for you and everyone you know who doesn’t know the Lord. Repent today cry out for mercy! A man must be born again to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. In the bible Jesus said a man must be born again to go to Heaven. A lot of people think this means they should merely believe in him. We see so often in our world today and abrupt end to people's lives. And it becomes increasingly clear that when we die nothing else matters aside from our relationship with Jesus Christ. That is the reality of God's creation whether we like it or not. He is the creator and we are merely his creation. Here to live on his terms and happily at that. John 3:16 Says for God so loved the world that he gave his only son that whoever would believe on him would not perish but have everlasting life. But John 2: 23 says Now when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, in the feast day, many believed in his name, when they saw the miracles which he did. 24But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because he knew all men, 25And needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was in man. One must square how one verse says to believe and be saved. And one verse says he did not commit himself to everyone who believes. It's crucial to think of these things because they are Heaven and hell issues. He said if you’re not willing to come after me you’re not worthy of me. And if you don’t take up your cross to follow me you’re not worthy of me. Whoever tries to keep his life will lose it but whoever will lose his life for my sake will find it. 2 Timothy 2:25 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart. 23But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes. 24And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, 25In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; 26And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
There’s no way to capture on a screen just how incredible it is to see it with your own eyes in the sky. I wish so bad I could make it to this year’s.
We’re right on the path of Monday’s eclipse and I can’t wait.

That will be Monday 😁
That’s pretty cool, we will only be able to view a partial eclipse from Florida this year but I’m still excited

Glad they chose to repost this. Why did she need glasses?

I ❤ Pink Floyd
And people still believe there is no God? Only the God of heaven could orchestrate this!
You’re absolutely right only god…
