I caught the 2009 total eclipse here and it was awe-inspiring. It was also the longest solar eclipse expected for the 21st century at 6 minutes, 39 seconds, so it made a deep impression on everybody standing on the roof of the apartment block to watch it.
I don’t wish to see a second, though, because the next one will be in the year 2200 and that would mean I’d still be alive in 200 years. Not something I want.
My first total solar eclipse. It was truly breath taking. I’ve seen another one since then but the first one was truly special.

It’s wild.
Air changing, animals responding. Shit must have been transcendental in the past.
