Not even close...
Still, what a bizarre path it follows. It's really no wonder that people would go on cruise ships just to see it since it tends to cover large areas of land and wilderness

bleh, eclipse should be around now but the sky is covered in clouds
No.127151
it's too sunny, I can't look at it
Also minor cloud cover is distorting the light. Looks a little less bright outside

Man, that must have been really cool. People say it's something you'll remember for the rest of your life, so do you think it's true?
No.127192
>>127191I remember back when I was kid, on our family home's roof garden, observing an eclipse along with the rest of the fmily. But not so much because the event was so impressive and memorable, but because I felt that all the excitement and effort that we had put into the observation had been completely wasted.
I might think differently today. But back then my opinion was "okay, so the sun was eclipsed. That happens literally every night."

>>127197I don't think it would work. If you were in space between the Moon and the Earth, the Moon would take up more of your field of vision so you wouldn't see the Sun's corona like you can from Earth. You'd still be able to see the partial eclipse happening though. The type of orbit matters, however. You would have to be in a geostationary orbit, orbiting the Earth at the same rate that it spins, for the eclipse to happen at the same time as it does on Earth. Otherwise you could probably observe the Moon eclipsing the Sun pretty often. The Internation Space Station, which is in low Earth orbit, for instance, makes 16 orbits around the Earth every 24 hours.

>>127199If you are going to space for an eclipse, there is no reason why you should have to stay between the Earth and the moon. All that is required is that you find a circular body that you can use to just obscure the sun with, (meaning you need to be the right distance from that body).
That could be the moon, it could also be Earth itself.
