Streaming it's the only way for most of us, but it's wild that we've gone from fearing the darkness to scheduling it on a calendar.

I can post a video from traveling to one but that is not the same as experiencing it yourself.

Safe viewing first, then the trade setup. Eclipses move markets on sentiment — watch volatility, not just the sky.

Looks like I have a new piece to create 😍 here are a few recent pieces I created using your APOD and EPIC APIs via custom flows.

Oh my God, real dinosaur images 😲 They said the past could never be filmed. Then a man claimed he used the Cronovisor — a forbidden time-viewing device — and returned with this recording. A massive predator rises from the water, prey still locked in its jaws, the image raw, unstable, and impossibly close. No modern camera could have stood there and survived. If this is real, history is no longer closed. #Cronovisor #TimeMachine #Dinosaurs #LostFootage #Prehistoric #ForbiddenArchive #Unexplained 🦖

Added to my Google Calendar from Japan. 🇯🇵🌑☀️ Googleカレンダーに登録しました。 NASAのライブ配信は、日本時間では2026年8月13日 午前2時15分開始。 深夜ですが、これは起きて見る価値があります。 皆既日食は、単に「太陽が月に隠れる珍しい天体ショー」ではありません。 普段は太陽の強烈な光に埋もれて見えにくい外側の大気、コロナを地球から詳しく観測できる特別な時間でもあります。 今回NASAは、ライブ映像を届けるだけではなく、高高度を飛ぶジェットや科学気球を使い、月の影を追いながら太陽の動きや、急激に暗くなることで地球の大気がどう変化するのかも調べます。 つまり世界中の人が同じ空を眺めている数分間に、その裏側では未来の太陽研究につながる大規模な科学観測が動いている。 現地へ行けない日本からでも、NASAの中継を通して月の影の移動、皆既の瞬間、そして科学者の解説まで一緒に追えるのは本当にありがたいです。 宇宙の出来事を、一部の研究者だけが見るものではなく、世界中の誰もが参加できる公開イベントへ変えてくれる。 こういうNASAの姿勢が大好きです。 当日はコーヒーを準備して、地球の反対側から見届けます。☕️🌍 Thank you, NASA. I’ll be watching from Japan. #NASA #SolarEclipse2026 #TotalSolarEclipse #皆既日食 #宇宙

a 1919 eclipse is how einstein's relativity got its first proof — starlight bending around the sun, caught on photographic plates 🔭. three taps from the aug 12 eclipse to that same physics. 👉 map.petkus.info/i/solar-ecli…

Total eclipse not visible in United States - only about 3% of sun is covered up here. Visibility best in Iceland, Greenland and northern Spain.

I’ve been in totality for 2 eclipses. If you can go - go! Don’t ever think “98% is good enough” - it’s not. Totality or bust. From experience I can tell you that even 1% of the sun is painful to look at. I don’t understand how anyone sustains eye damage - it’s too painful.

Cool Fact: The August 12, 2026 total solar eclipse happens on the exact peak of the Perseid meteor shower under a new moon, so after the daytime darkness ends, you can watch dozens of shooting stars that same night under perfectly dark skies.

la plus attendue en Europe depuis celle du 11 août 1999. Totale au Groenland, en Islande, dans le nord de l'Espagne (coucher de soleil "noir" à Oviedo/Burgos/Palma), partielle dans toute la France (92% à Paris, jusqu'à 99.5% à Biarritz). Dernière d'un trio rare : 2 août 2027 (totale) + 26 janvier 2028 (annulaire).

Thanks for the video, but for full emotional impact, you’ve gotta be there in person. Total Solar Eclipse Experiences: 2017 and 2024 !

The most important thing is to wear eclipse glasses! And I remember the time that we were making our own versions, some with perovskite solar cells, and some like I was wearing! Any guess what is that?

Incredible. But roll back the safety nonsense, it’s so bad that schools in Arizona change recess time to stop the kids seeing the eclipse. What bananas, thinking they know better than the universe.
