I came across this article that highlighted the total solar eclipse. It was from a few weeks ago, but it was worth watching.

This is a full video of the event from NASA Glenn Research Center in Cleveland, Ohio. The video is 3 hours 9 minutes long and it actually begins at 9 minutes and 14 seconds, so move it forward to that point.

| Three and a half hours before the total solar eclipse at my location. I went outside and the sky was clear. It was beautiful. I tried out my Solar Eclipse glasses. They worked fine. Boy the suns is so small when you look at it using these glasses. |
