    Imagine how our ancestors felt ! Not knowing how or why
    . Fascination about space has been our curiosity for millenniums

      Imagine 4000 years ago you are out tending to your animals. . .and you think to yourself. . .ah the clouds feel nice today. . .only to remember there are no clouds today. . .and to look up and see the sun, the most important thing in existence to people for thousands of years. . .slowly being devoured by the most ominous and terrifying shadow you have ever witnessed. . .if people today can't understand why these people were religious then I dunno what to say to them. I just witnessed it at 1.005 magnitude, here just outside of dallas. I have never seen anything so incredible and I have never felt this way. It made me start crying and I dont really know why. But it was incredible beyond words. And I'm a modern human with a college education. I just can't imagine how it felt seeing this 100s or 1000s of years ago. Its incredible. . .I feel just so fortunate to be alive and experience this today. . .

    The sounds of the mourning doves and tree frogs coming out, a rooster crowing in the distance.. it was amazing here in Ashtabula, Ohio. Unsettling how quiet it got when all the birds stopped chirping. The shadows got so long, we felt like we were outside of time. Best thing I’ve ever seen in the sky

    Saw it. Felt the temperature drop when it darkened. Heard the frog noises and then they shut up when the skies brightend. Glad I didn't spend a small fortune on a road trip just for it but it was something worth experiencing if it was nearby. The ring in totality was the best part. Seeing it with the naked eye is different than the picture on this video. Or maybe my old eyes saw it different. Lol

      I'm in Northern Virginia. You missed it. A little less than an hour ago sun was 90% blocked out. But it's not nearly as noticeable as if you are directly in the path of totality, which we are not. It looked darker outside and the quality of light was different, but if you wanted to see the sun being blocked out you'd need to look at it with special glasses, otherwise it was still too bright to see anything.

      Hmm, The Bible
      YAHWEY GOD'S WORD
      WAS ACTUALLY INSPIRED BY HIM.
