  1. Yah this year I think that in the year 2017 where folks experienced full totality of the 🌙 . Only in several places.but, this year in the eastern coast. Will experience full or partial totality in most states. Of the totol & solor celestial eclipse🌙,/( from, Taejuan blizz

  2. What are they JOKING. All that We saw was the biggest sky POLLUTION ever. on April 8th the sky was WHITE for 24 hours , weather was very hot, but the next day April 9th , it was all WINTER. ..Again. Ever heard about their Plans to Block the Sun ? it seems the tests are going just fine here.

  3. Not great to think of an eclipse as a "party" or "wedding" time. Eclipses have traditionally meant wars, upheavals and destruction of empires. I guess nobody knows that the USA is on the brink of destruction. "All she wants to do is dance," a song that fits the bill here.

  4. I was not expecting getting that emotional during the eclipse. I've seen the pictures and videos before and I always found those very beautiful of course. But nothing can describe the feeling while it is happening in front of you but I'll try.

    You first look at the sun with light blocking glasses and you first see the moon blocking the sun. I said to myself… ok… this is really happening a bit in denial. And then you see it blocking slowly but surely. The temperature is starting to cool down even if the light is very bright. It made me realize how we are so dependent on the sun's energy for all life on earth. It made me appreciate how sun=life. The shadows have weird shapes. You look at the landscape and you know something is odd.

    And then… totality his happening, the crowd is screaming in awe, we just can't contain ourselves, it is literally impossible to contain. You feel the hype, it is stronger than what you expected. It is sunset colors 360 all around you and you see what seems like a black hole in the sky. Truly the weirdest and most beautiful thing I ever saw. You can see the sun atmosphere surrounding the moon, it feels violent, chaotic and you can't believe you can see sun storms with your naked eye. It is frightening and amazing at the same time. You can see planets and star which feels like a glitch in the matrix in day time.

    I felt like everybody wanted to share the joy with others. It removes the day to day problems. At that moment, hundreds of people are just cheering up what the universe can show us. It is a first timer for 99% of us so we are like a child discovering the world again looking confused and excited at the same time.

    So it is all there, right in front of you, the sun, the moon, the planets, the stars, the animals reacting to us and the light, the insects and bird chants changing, all people around you, many from around the world to see this, different languages, different families, different loves. But all our differences doesn't matter for those 4 minutes we all share one love to us and the universe.

    I felt connected to what our ancestors felt and I was grateful for them. I felt connected to the immensity of the universe and all its beauty.

  5. I love the grounded reality of this channel!!!
    Retirement took a toll on my finances, but with my involvement in the digital market, $27,000 weekly returns has been life changing. AWESOME GOD❤️

  6. And one magical explained like magical situation, almost all at exactly 100% sounds the reality like our microscopic viewing a clearly from the advance . mistake tech and discovering creating with puzzle mat hing adopting without knowledge from them gid is so powerful but no meaning foor science education we need to follow and the knoledge of science discovery ang akin lang ay isang pagpapaalala sa mga tao na kapag ang dark ay kumilos sa from us kaya nitong takpan crowded ng kara.ihan at mawalan ng kinang ang mga mapanlinlang na kumukinang ma liwanag. Walang mawawala kung maniniwala ka pero guato kong idagdag sa science research, ang isang may pagkilala sa panginoon at magkaroon ng pananampalatay at kapag naniwala ka sakanya ang bawat taong may ganitong pananaw ay nakalilikha ng positibong pamamaraan,positibong pangunawa,positinong positibong paguugali at many possitive ways kapag maytoon kang diyos sa pamumuhay mo.

  7. If god creating a little on a short time reality to being one and possible being one conmecting in one. Why everybody adopting this combination 2 become 1 god adressing 5he reality of many argue many issue from different country. God want to belive him mayroong diyos sa buhay natin kaya lagi natin isentro ang panginoon sa ating oamumuhay even the other religious and science theory i dont have any interest. But amaze and very exactly the reality of people with us.

  8. the Next Year Eclipse only one year no way home remain forever block away Subttles Cloased Captions
    you don't Thing about that Set a Free Playing with Game, And You Don't Thing Through home Planet of Earth a very long Gone 10 years ago.

  9. I believe this is God's way of saying "ya'll MFers better behave. Dont make me come down there!" Either that or him saying "put ur damn phones down!"

  10. STUPID! I'm in my late 60's. TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE Have happened several times in my lifetime. msm Has PROMOTED This therefore GULLIBLE Are Listening. These Are Same People Complaining about High Prices on EVERYTHING! They Spend $ on Gas & Hotels! UH, WTF!?

  11. I am not sure the converse with the suit is working, but, hey, it is 2024 so… Back in the day, CBS had a much stricter dress code. I am not complaining, just observing. The eclipse shots are fabulous.

  12. I was watching the news and
    the sky started turning dark that day And literally i saw changes in the sky from inside, so i went outside to take a few pictures AND IT WAS AWESOME!!! It felt like CHRIST was Risen

  13. The lady commentator is completely clueless. Numerous errors in her statements, such as the sun is 400 times bigger than the earth. Wrong! They need to have professionals narrate such a celestial event.

  14. Let me answer for the man at 24:21 and what he probably really wanted to say who was trying to enjoy the few moments of totality while Janet is interrupting the precious time that he has asking
    “What do you think sir, what do you think ?”
    Ahem… “There’s a time to be silent and a time to speak. This is a time to be silent, and not speak. So be quiet and let me and all of us enjoy this for the few minutes we have. And turn that damn light out that your shining in all our faces.”
    I felt for him and was so annoyed on his behalf.

  15. Okay how many feel there is something else that eclipses the Sun? Like there’s a derelict Dyson sphere in this solar system of ours and like our moons Camelot or crystal castle cities this Dyson sphere is not usually easy to see because it’s a billion years out of operation lol but it still gyroscopes in and of itself and it’s got some circular features at prominence points that cause the eclipses whether total annular or partial… because why is the moon solid black, everything I learned in art school drawing ✍️ says a sphere will have varying degrees of shading even if the light source is straight on… plus in France in the 1600’s the Moon was visible during and separate from the event… like uhhh and plus there’s videos of that happening this time in 2024 and they chem trailed the skies to cover it up plus astrology die hard s sounded the alarm a month ago showing the moon would not be in alignment for eclipse it would be next to the sun in the sky as we’ve all seen before the sun and moon sharing the day time sky… so what is going on folks

  16. im from the other side of the earth so i didnt get to see it. i was so confused because the moon was gone! then i read the news about the solar eclipse. i really want to see a solar eclipse. im in the philippines and i missed out on every solar eclipse because no one told me about it.

  17. ITS WRITTEN IN THE BIBLE AND THERE WILL BE DARKNESS AND LIGHT EVERY BODY AROUND THE WORLD 🌎 MUST BELIEVE GOD IS ALIVE AND TRUE HALLELUJAH GOD BLESS ALLTHE PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD 🌎 AMEN !

  18. Peetruse esimene kiri 3:8 Aga viimaks, olge kõik üksmeelsed, kaastundlikud, vennalikud, halastajad, alandlikud.

    9 Ärge tasuge kurja kurjaga ega sõimu sõimuga, vaid hoopis õnnistage – sest õnnistamiseks te olete kutsutud -, et ka teie võiksite pärida õnnistuse.

    10 Sest

    „kes tahab armastada elu

    ja näha häid päevi,

    see vaigistagu keelt kõnelemast kurja

    ja huuli rääkimast pettust.

    11 Ta hoidugu eemale kurjast ja tehku head,

    otsigu rahu ja taotlegu seda,

    12 sest Issanda silmad on õiglaste poole

    ja tema kõrvad on lahti nende anumistele,

    aga Issanda pale on nende vastu, kes teevad kurja.”

  19. It was spectacular in Houlton, Maine. Not even a single cloud and a bright and sunny day. Too Many cars from many states and met a couple of astronomical enthusiasts from Texas who made it to Maine at the last minute. Was stuck in endless traffic later.
