Total Solar Eclipse Aug. 17, 2017

Yer welcome.

Additional:

I've read that a #12 welding filter is sufficient, but it's really not.  Perhaps because my eclipse was not quite total?  

The filters are cheap and the numbers are additive; buy an assortment and stack them to add up to about 14 or 15.  Take a peek, and adjust.

Quite possibly, since the least amount of light is in a full annular eclipse.

Not sure if serious. I don't think he said the moon changes its size.

Of course it does.

There's a very intricate system that inflates/deflates the moon on a regular cycle.

I see an eclipse every day: an Earthly eclipse.  Starts at sunset and ends at sunrise.

Being on the darkside of the planet during a diurnal rotation is not  an eclipse.



It's called night.
