Although eclipses happen regularly, the path of totality is so extremely limited that very few people have ever seen a total solar eclipse. If you stood in one place and waited to see one, you could wait for 300 years or more.
Omg I've seen a total one, I think late 2017?
@@kanei42 I’m happy to be apart of it
🧿🧿
Glory to God. May He Have Mercy on us 🙏🙏🙏
AMEN.....!!!
Odd we don't hear about NASA shooting 3 rockets at the eclipse. One 45 minutes before, one during, one 45 minutes after.
Project "Serpent Deity" ....yup yup cooooool 😎😵💫
@@cr0wnedt0rtuga
Sounds worthy of worship. 🫲🙂↕️🫱
They did it during the last eclipse too
@@Giuseppe326 so that makes project serpent deity ok?
@@SuperBroop yes
It's going to be cloudy and raining in Texas 😪
Just saw it and wow. What a experience makes u happy to be alive
Here’s what to know about this solar eclipse is that all be asleep cuz I got work the next day and that’s what’s going to be different about the eclipse 😂😂😂
The eclipse happens in the middle of the day, and believe it or not a lot of people get PTO from their jobs
All good, you can catch it again in 20 years
there will be no work tomorrow
I like the diamond effect last time in California for a moment a very specific shine it was awesome
I saw it in Columbia.
The corona was shimmering and sparkling like a silver mirror. 😮
OMG 😢😢😢
I hope the weather’s good!
Wait what if you wear glasses because you need them to see and you need the solar eclipse glasses to not be blind do you need to put glasses on top of glasses air
Amazing
can't wait I'm in Niagara Falls Ny ;-)
I watched the last one on the banks of the snake river outside Jackson, WY. Can’t beat that.
Won't need those glasses if I watch someone's video of the total solar eclipse 🙃
I lived along the coast of Georgia in 1970 and saw the total eclipse that lasted over 3 minutes. No eclipse glasses, so we watched it using the pin hole technique until it was full eclipse then had a brief time to look directly. I was 9 years old and even at that age I felt the strangeness and see why people used to attribute mystical portents to the event. I live in VA now so not in the total eclipse zone but I will get an 85% eclipse - assuming the sky is clear.
This is incredible! A chance to see the sky dim and then become dark. Wow. Wait, does not that happen every night because the earth rotates away from the sun. More impressive.
🌟 On April 8, 2024, an extraordinary celestial event will grace our skies: a total solar eclipse. This moment, especially the breathtaking "diamond ring effect," speaks profoundly of God's unbreakable promises to us. As the moon momentarily veils the sun, revealing a singular, brilliant gleam of light, we're reminded of God's enduring love and the covenant He has made with us, His bride, the church. 🌒💍
"In those moments of seeming darkness, there's always a persistent glimmer, reminding us of the hope and presence that never truly leaves us." - John 8:12 assures us, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." 💖 The darkness faced during the eclipse, and the stars that emerge, reflect the trials and tribulations of life. Yet, just as stars guide sailors, so do the saints and faithful guide us towards the Light of the World, whispering, "Weeping may stay for the night, but rejoicing comes in the morning." - Psalm 30:5.
"Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you." - Isaiah 60:1. 💫✨ The stars visible during the eclipse are akin to the "cloud of witnesses" (Hebrews 12:1), those who have gone before us, whose faith lights our path in moments of darkness. The eclipse’s fleeting shadow, contrasted by the brilliance that breaks through, underscores a transformative truth: behind the veil of our struggles lies the unchanging light of God's love. "The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp." - Revelation 21:23. 🌅
This upcoming eclipse is not just an astronomical phenomenon; it's a divine exhibition of love, a celestial declaration of the Kingdom among us. It reminds us of the covenant God has made with His church, His bride, echoing through creation the depth of His love and the promise of salvation. 💖
As we anticipate this extraordinary event on April 8, 2024, let it be a vivid reminder of God's promises to us. This is my testimony: living in the Kingdom of God, beholding His majesty in creation, and knowing the depth of His love through Christ. Let this eclipse be a declaration of God's love, a celestial sign of His eternal promise, guiding us closer to His eternal light. 💫✨

@jeancarroll7957 Indeed, these are powerful reminders of biblical references, such as fire and brimstone and earthquakes, often portrayed as manifestations of God’s judgment against disobedience and a call to righteousness. These dramatic elements of nature serve not only as reminders of the awe-inspiring might of God's creation but also as symbols of the consequences of straying from His path. They underscore the importance of living in accordance with divine principles and the reality of God's sovereignty over justice and mercy alike. While celestial events like eclipses can draw our minds to God's promises and love, the formidable aspects of nature remind us of the seriousness with which we should approach our relationship with the Creator. They invite a reflection on our own lives and the paths we choose, emphasizing the need for repentance, humility, and the pursuit of righteousness in the eyes of God.
I’m gonna watch dis
It’s going to be cloudy almost the whole path sucks
As usual 😂😂😂
I won the geographic lottery for this because I live in Northwest Austin, I’m going to get almost 3 minutes of Totality from my porch. And apparently it’s going to be completely overcast. I’m not religious, but I will prostrate myself before any, and all possible deities for a break in the clouds.
OOooh, sorry to hear about the overcast skies. A total eclipse on a cloudy day is like winning ten cents in the lottery. Here in New Hampshire it's expected to be partly cloudy. I just hope a cloud doesn't decide it'd be funny to block the sun during the eclipse.
@@GraniteStateVictoria winning 10 cents in the lottery haha, I like that. Yeah I’m completely heartbroken. I love our unique place in the Universe, I can go look at the stars any night and just feel an overwhelming sense of awe and wonder. This would be life changing for me.
@@mattlawson714 I wish I could open up a cabin at the hotel/lodge I work at so you could come here to see the eclipse. Sadly, I can't do that, sorry. But I do agree that it's fun to watch and observe things. I'm a super early riser, the only one of her friends who gets up at times like 4 AM or 5 AM, my friends are always like "Victoria, you get up so early in the morning"
@@GraniteStateVictoria that’s awesome! I’m a night owl so I don’t love mornings but there have been a few times in my life when I’ve gotten up at 5 consistently for weeks and it’s amazing. It’s almost spiritual to feel that kind of peace while everyone is asleep. I live near a nature preserve and if I get up early enough I can see deer before loud people with dogs scare them away.
@@mattlawson714 My boyfriend's a night owl and he was surprised that there's a lot of common ground between super early birds and night owls. I love waking up super early and enjoying the beautiful night sky turning into morning. Totally agree that it's almost spiritual watching the first patch of blue appear in the night sky, growing brighter as twilight settles in, and the morning light slowly brightens up. My favorite time to eat breakfast is while it's getting light out, although that's not possible in December and January (not to mention October and most of March because of stupid daylight savings time), I love working on artwork, playing video games. It's so peaceful and beautiful, and then like the corny dork I am, say hello to the sun like it's a person when it rises. Most people who know me know three things about me, I wake up super early, I always wear sunglasses, and I always have energy and try to be as friendly and kind to people as I can. I really appreciate the virtues that this tiny town in New Hampshire I grew up in gave me. I had all these ideas growing up that I was going to do something big for my town and make it more well known, I even got a degree at Dartmouth (still no idea how I got in considering I come from a poor family that I'm the first and so far only one to go to college), but I moved back to my beloved town deciding that big city life isn't for me, I'm more of a small town girl (with a more big city femme fatale aesthetic, I've been told people are shocked I'm from such a tiny town upon first meeting me, then after talking to me for five minutes they totally get it). I view everyone I meet as a potential friend until they give me reason to believe otherwise
When. Is this
April 8th
With recent budget cuts, NASA has sadly just announced the cancellation of the eclipse. Donald Trump has responded that by sending him $59.99, he'll pray they'll bring it back.
😂
When is it post to happen tomorrow?
TODAY!
In Vermont barre it’s sunny out and there’s no clouds
As harbingers go, eclipses are my favorite
Has anyone made any unusual predictions about this upcoming April 8th eclipse?
I predict it will be trash
No
Aries Scar
In the very old days if someone pagan put themselves out there and they predicted some type of event to occur and it failed to transpire, that false prophet was slaughtered. The pagan gods must be against them so they had to go.
I wish they would’ve scheduled this on a weekend when most people are off work and school
CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE MAKE A VIDEO OF IT WITH THE DUNE SOUNDTRACK!
PLEASE!!!
It messes up your phone if you record it that way
@@Mortalkombat295 Don't use your phone.
@@skepticsanalysis528 yeah ik
They been talking about this since Friday."Wow" like if there's nothing else to do.
Me Being someone who literally missed it: 👁👄👁
Its like watching the solar system clock strike 12.
I'm looking forward to it, I live in New Hampshire in the path. I'm going to be so amazed by it for sure. I must be easily impressed because I saw a 50%-60% eclipse in 2017 and thought it was so awesome. I was like "this is so cool, it's like there's a cloud in front of the sun and I can still see the sun!" I imagine my mouth will be hanging open in awe. I hope I don't drool. Actually, you know what? I don't care if I drool. I just hope I don't become known as the "drooling eclipse girl" or something if I do.
Can you name anyone who looked at a solar eclipse without their protective glasses?
Wish it was visible where I live, only a partial eclipse here. gotta wait till 2033 for one to be visible here.
Who comes up with these buzz words like I've never heard it referred to as totality I've never even heard the word totality before
You'll be able to see Mars and Saturn in the aquarius constellation, Venus in Pisces, and Jupiter in Taurus. Mercury, Uranus, and Neptune will not be visible, though
Why nasa shooting rockets at it
Ill be at work
This gives me the idea that we have the power of the sun and moon wy would humans gather to see something like this if like as if it was a celebrity or something
It's a beautiful event, only every 40 years can you see this.
I'm writing that it will be 20 years before there will be another solar eclipse in the year 2044.
Haley's comet, Y2K, 12/21/12, 4/8/24, y'all need to get lives man. haven't seen this much hype about an eclipse since Elton John rewrote candle in the wind.
I live in California so i probably won’t be able to see it
We’ll see it
Mf had 2 mention bucket list. Bring people like me who can never afford to see it get depressed af.
What to know: to do the complete opposite of whatever “ABC” tells you
It’s actually called “shade”. It’s kinda boring.
Just Don’t bring your behelit
Jesus loves everyone on here, seek him daily❤🙏
🌒 a one in a Million Chance of a lifetime. Will it show COMPASSION 🤔. 4:24 second's. Say something else. 4:24 seconds
Unfortunately londoners won't see it... We will only see clouds and rain
you could try and visit the us or go see another one, they're actually very common worldwide
Indigenous people across the globe treat eclipses as spiritual events. In America it is experienced with greed, massive travel with short tempers, millions leaving behind garbage, and trampling natural areas.
@jeancarroll7957 have they shown you the aftermath yet?
❤❤❤👍😎🤩🌞🌑🌎✨
An I will enter the portal into Outworld lol😂
According to the euro model it's supposed to rain in the whole path of the eclipse
🥱
This is the only time lunatics come out in the daytime.
the next one is 2044
im gonna stare at it directly and burn my retinas. cant wait
leber's hereditary optic neuropathy LHON Cuidado!!!!!
Why is CERN SHOOTING MISSILES INTO ECLIPSE ! Project Blue beam
Mankind wouldn't know how it becomes dark in a minutes during the day light , see the ability of Allah to make, move, and show everything by his own willingness. We couldn't know what's happening without seeing a sign of total solar eclipse. The Scientists, show us a little amount of the sciences of Allah on how and when that happens. Thank you for this moment to share.
Nemesis, the suns burnt out sister.
During totality all crimes are legal.
I’m going to test what happens if I stare at it without glasses. I don’t believe it will burn out my retinas.
You would be totally wrong, if you can look at it. It will hurt your eyes and be very painful 🙏
@@maxinemcelroy8902 there’s only one way to find out. I think that’s just something moms say to avoid injury. I can take it.
@@maxinemcelroy8902 I’ll try and see what happens. We are only getting 90 percent coverage so it’s not a total eclipse.
@GregoryChew0921
Gotcha! I'm traveling from Roanoke Va to Akron, Ohio, staying with my niece. She has puppies I have one and they get along so great. It's a puppies party and photo shoots
Detroit is getting 99.8 percent coverage I think it would be stupid to drive to Ohio
I experienced a hand eclipse every time it’s too bright outside.
And everthing under the sun is in tune cause the sun is eclipsed by the moon
On 04/08/0004, exactly 2020 years ago, a solar eclipse occurred in the Roman Empire when Herod died and the baby Jesus was able to return from Egypt with his parents.
Venus shine like a sackcloth of hair
Who cares !!!!! No be deal to get in such a flap....except some crazies will die to look at nothing but another eclipse....
OH My! the last time I seen this I had a total eclipse of the heart 😩boo hoo.
I’m sad for San Antonia only getting 18 seconds
Better then nothing
Yes but when
April 8th
Na. Ive seen solar eclipse lol. Doesn’t give me any feeling 🤣🤣
It happens every 18 months. Its not once in a lifetime
No it doesn't. Wow.
Where did you even get that number?
Hopefully Trump will watch it without his eclipse glasses again😵
Am i the only one who has no interest in this? I live right in totality line with clear weather forecast but I am not even planning on taking time to walk outside. It gets dark every night, this isnt anything special
Then you're unaware and uninterested. Not good qualities
@@rensinclair4218 I am fully aware of the elements of the eclipse, I am just not interested in it. It's not a "bad quality", it's just a difference of what people find interesting. I just think the high level of interest is mostly leftover tradition from back when humanity did not understand the cosmos at all. By knowing what is actually occurring all the mystery is gone for me, and the actual effect of the eclipse I think is not enough to warrant so much interest for me, I just think there are far more fascinating natural events to be interested in
its not a big deal.
Apparently you haven't seen totality. It's mind blowing 😮
Biblical prophecy?!?!?
And people think God does not exist !! This is GOD and not an accident. All glory to our lord Jesus Christ 🙏 ✝️
Firmament. Pillars. Stationary. Psalm 104:5
this is such a good report on Israel's genocide and ethnic cleansing, just when i gave up all hope on free press in America. Whoops wrong video
What is the big deal? It’s been happening over and over and over again for thousands of years. What is the big deal
