  Especially because it hasn’t always and it won’t forever. Humanity’s existence just happens to coincide with the period of amazing eclipses.

    Yep this. Call in sick, quit, max out your credit, go halfway around the world, do literally whatever is needed to be done to see a total eclipse if you haven’t been able to experience it yet. It’s unreal.

      It’s pretty fantastic, but not that good.

      From what I’ve seen of future eclipse maps, it’ll probably be a very long time before I get to see another eclipse at totality

  You kidding?

  There is loads of space between the Earth and the Sun to fit the Moon.
