    Default Solar Eclipse

    Anyone else watch the solar eclipse across America overnight (or live in the states)?

    I ended up watching the whole coverage on NASA TV.

    The images were amazing, especially the shots of the ISS crossing the sun and those taken from the ISS itself.

    There were constant safety warnings not to look directly at the sun (until the eclipse was in totallity) but not everyone heeded the warnings.

    I just so happened to be up talking to friends in Whistler, they had just been watching it
    Then had Sky News on and they had that clip of D. Trump you've posted
    Was hilarious watching him, he couldn't give a stuff about it and neither could i to be honest.

    But the US Media were all over it like it was New Years Eve!!
    Crossing from one reporter to another, interviewing Cleetus Mc####nuckle that had camped out all night just to watch it.
    If u want to go on an expedition get a Land Rover, if u want to come home from an expedition get a Landcruiser!

    True freedom is the greatest gift a man can possess, yet is the one thing most easily and innocently given away, to crafty curses and binds cleverly disguised as blessings and gifts, in the pursuit of supposed achievement, status and power.
