    I'm 54 years old and watched these happen in other parts of the nation and world all my life. Now I got to see totality for myself in Dallas, TX. It was awesome, I may never see another. Truly remarkable!
  • Seeing this in person about an hour ago was one of the coolest things I have ever seen. I’m also sad to think I’ll never live to see another total eclipse again.
  • @szshz
    For those who don't have the chance to see it, you can see it at 2:30:30
  • Saw this in a totalitarian zone and it’s the coolest thing I’ve ever seen. If anyone reading has the chance to see something like this, DO IT. It is such a cool thing and feels so much different to see in person rather than on video.

    I live in forest ohio. The best spot in the whole world. Literally 800 ppl in my town idk how we got so lucky
  • I’m so heartbroken! I was prepared and ready for this solar eclipse and it was completely cloud covered and rained the whole time. Never reached “totality” it didn’t even get dark here 😭
  • So awesome getting to see it, even it is on tv (: I'm still grateful to be alive for this time of Cosmic history.

    I just saw my second solar eclipse since 2017. Light clouds but just enough to see it again. The sunlight got paler and paler until it got dark all around very quickly. The warm colored evening horizons was all around us instead of just west. Night sky. Not as many stars were seen this time. After the eclipse the northeast looked like a heavy storm. Very surreal experience.

    WATCHED IT WITH MY 9 yr old HE TOLD ME IT WAS A MEMORY HE WILL NEVER FORGET🙏🏼 HOPE HE LIVES OLD ENOUGH TO SEE ANOTHER WITH HIS SON‼️
  • I live in Waxahachie, TX and was scheduled to deliver for Amazon today. It was overcast cloudy and I clocked in and was told that I'd be on standby, so I was cautiously hopeful. I waited and then got let out before noon. I gunned it home to my parents with a few breaks in the clouds and set up a bluetooth speaker playing Pink Floyd, had a neighborhood friend bike over to my backyard, and after "Eclipse" finished playing at 1:34 P.M. it was just 3 more minutes until the beginning of totality. It was the most awesome thing I will ever see in my life. 4 minutes of true awe that I probably will never experience again, right over my backyard. I completely understand now why people fly around the world to experience it, it is TRULY AMAZING, and that is an understatement. 😅 The best part is the last 10 seconds looking through the glasses and seeing the light around you dim quickly until it looks like the sky before dawn or after dusk, and to see a black circle block a bright star that you can do absolutely nothing about is something I will never take for granted. After the Union Pacific Big Boy 4014 rolled through Waxahachie in 2021 and now 4 minute totality, I can say without a doubt that I have seen everything (except the northern lights, Starship launch, and the Milkyway Galaxy in person at a certified dark sky location) and can die now, and I wouldn't be upset. It's like the mountains, unless you've seen it in person, you won't understand until you do, because pictures just DO NOT do it justice at all.
  • You people that saw it in person are lucky! 😆I was watching this through my phone losing my marbles!

    It was fantastic viewing near Indianapolis. What an amazing once in a lifetime experience. We got so lucky with the weather. 76 degrees and some minor haze which did not impact viewing. Temperatures really plunged during totality. Just Beautiful.
  • I have now seen 3 Solar Eclipse after 5 decades....I'm truly blessed ❤️🙏🏾 in total awe & I appreciate all 3🌕🌔🌑🌕🌑🌔... 💯% Shell shocked 😲😱 What a phenomenal experience.

    Here in Tyler Texas. Took a lot of Stamina because it was cloudy. But God moved the clouds enough to see it in totality!! At the end it was like the night. 😊
