Even if you don’t have kids! It’s a great way to get a feel for stars without having to go out and watch. (Been a bad year for stargazing here. Too warm.)
For people in America…. The eighth has a total eclipse, next one is in 20 years. Just a reminder… if you can get to the path of totality (100%), it is an entirely different experience.
Sadly, I'll miss this one, but I was in the middle of Oregon during that total eclipse. Eerie is one way to put it, but I would say it provides somewhat of an existential experience having the moon fully interrupt the light of our star. The birds go quiet, the temperature drops and a twilight surrounds you whilst still being able to see sunlight off in the distance. I spent time using my camera for a moment or two, but really wanted to fully experience it at the same time. It involved a long time without sleep, but I am very happy I made the journey.
