Eclipse 2017: One Nation Under The Sun | NPR

- The 2017 total solar eclipse made its way from Oregon to South Carolina. Fourteen states were in the path of total darkness -- the first time a total eclipse covered such a wide swath of America since 1918.
On one hand, an eclipse is an astronomical event, a coincidence of satellite size and location. But it’s a cultural experience, too: a moment we can’t help but imbue with meaning.

I saw this solar eclipse from Massachusetts, I remember thinking "I need to wait for 2024 for the next one? 7 years is in FOREVER"
Well here I am, 7 years later. It feels like 7 years is a long time until you actually experience it!
I will watch the 2024 eclipse but this time in the path of Totality.
Same!!!
But from TX 😅
I live in Toledo area Ohio. I was able to see that it got a little dimmer, but nothing noticeable until I saw the before and after photos I took. Wasn’t anything special from where I was, but still cool to see through glasses. Just ever slightly it covered the sun. Me and my friends watched it together on their trampoline. A special time. I was young and 18. I thought the same…2024? I’ll be 25! And here I am…25. And now I’ll see it for real 🙂 space… is so special to me. Nature and space phenomenons. It has a special place in my heart. It just makes me emotional.
Full body chills🥹 same!!!!!
Indiana here😌
This footage is the closest thing I've seen so far that captured the wonder that was the Great American Eclipse. Great job NPR!
This video brought tears to my eyes.
Javed Mohamed same. ☺
The eclipse did for me! I saw it in Marion, IL, planed to go less than a week before, I live in Southern Wisconsin
Same 🥲
The eclipse truly blew me away. It massively surpassed my expectations. I feel like everyone should try to see one in their life. It's that good.
Some people asked "well, with all that traffic coming home, was it worth it?" Somebody who witnessed it wouldn't have asked that. It was hands down the most beautiful thing I've ever witnessed in my 41 years.
I completely agree. This not only lived up to the hype, it far exceeded it.
I saw it in the path of totality. It's absolutely indescribably awe inspiring. Words and videos cannot do it justice. Definitely a must see on the bucket list.
@@cameronpeterson1175I saw the 2024 eclipse in Burlington Vermont. It took my family and I 11 hours to get home to Massachusetts. I would do it again in a heartbeat! It's that good!!!
I had my life saving transplant on this day. It was written in the universe. I am forever grateful to my donor and the world.
I saw the total solar eclipse in Nebraska...Something that I'll NEVER forget ever.. This video makes me shed a tear, like I did on that day! So many beautiful memories.. Life altering experience
lucky you, I am from Czech, (Europe) so its not possible for me :(
Being less than 3 weeks away from the 2024 total eclipse, I’m beyond excited! I think everyone should try and see it in totality.
It was my first total solar eclipse and on this Leo's 32nd Birthday!!
Leos are ruled by The Sun you know 🌞😻BEST BIRTHDAY EVER!!
It was the most amazing experience of my life seeing it in Beatrice, Nebraska in that crowd of more than 10,000 people while Bill Nye the Science Guy was narrating what was happening. It was so emotional because his show was always there throughout my childhood and he was standing on the stage only a few yards from me, teaching us all while we felt that unforgettable childlike excitement again💖
On that day, I became an eclipse chaser. It reminded us all just how beautiful nature can be. We were all so worried about the clouds obscuring the eclipse and at the last moment, the clouds parted and let us see it in all its glory. The Sun is 400x the distance from Earth as the moon and yet the moon is approx 1/400th the apparent size. I am not a Christian but if that 'coincidence' isn't divine, I don't know what is.
Far and away the most astonishing thing I've ever seen in my 64 years. Seeing a partial is a yawner, seeing totality is life changing.
I was in Chicago when I experienced the 2017 eclipse. Clear day, decided not to look directly at the sun, but when I saw the darkness happen - I was astounded myself. We had about 60 to 70 percent totality in Chicago when the eclipse peaked - but in scores of other American towns that got hit with 100 percent umbra (or "totality"), it was like day quickly turning into night in 2 or 3 minutes! When it was all over, it was going to be something I will remember for a long time.
There are no words to describe the raw emotion you feel when you see totality, but NPR did a good job capturing some of it. Everyone owes it to themselves to see the one in April 2024. GO! DO IT!! You owe yourself that experience. I'm glad I drove 10 hours from Texas to see it. Can't wait for 2024 when it's in my back yard. :)
I didn’t get to see 2017 total eclipse only partial same state but I’m going to the center of the center line or close enough to it where I get 4:26 of it
It’s that time April 2024 right around the corner
I come from the future to tell you
Thank you NPR for capturing these amazing moments of raw human emotions of an awe inspiring cosmic event
Such an amazing day and one of the last great memories I had with both my mom and dad before they passed away.
One of the coolest thing was seeing the crescent shadows through the tree leaves. I will never forget it. Thinking of going in 2024.
crescent shadows were cool looking forward to those as well for 2024 especially since I have been waiting since October 23 2014 for this eclipse
Checking in! You should go if you can! It won't disappoint :)
About only time people are united like this. Pity there isn't an Eclipse everyday of the week!
❤️ viewed from Ravenna Nebraska! Great people in Ravenna and Kearny. Ill never forget😊
I experienced totality from the comfort of my parents back deck in Wyoming. When it was over I already decided I wouldn't miss the next one either. Truly one of the most amazing things I have ever seen. So excited that we are a week away from the next one!
I'm in Arizona so did not see much of the eclipse but seeing the unity of people despite our differences and current state of the country is inspiring and brought tears to my eyes. I wish it didn't take an event like this to bring us together.
Thank you NPR - an inspiring moment captured - would like to remind anyone reading this that observing the night sky can be equally awe inspiring
The last time all of America came together in joy
I couldn't stop weeping either. This was so beautiful. I can't stop embracing and celebrating.
Paul Marado bitch didnt u just say the liberals were the nut bags that over reacted?
Crimson Light as a matter of fact I did.
I saw alot of Xtians overreacting too... your point is?????
Apparently Paul doesn't think over-reacting is a bad thing...
This and the next American eclipse in 2024 may be the last solar eclipses I will ever see. I'll never forget them, telling stories about them and watching the videos I made along with the ones like NPR's videos for inspiration for the rest of my life. This may be the purest event humans will ever know. A phenomenon that causes no destruction, just awe and inspiration.
5:26 I like the last song of this video. It captures the experience perfectly. Anyone know it?
Thomas Hayes I tried using Google Sound Search and it took me to a musician named Asura and the song is _Ascension in Blue_ Its not the same song but it's still good ambient music. I'm still searching though.
warmccl That's a start, thanks :)
It’s 2023 now and its happening today as i comment 😎
Isn't it supposed to happen tomorrow? @@luxuryqueen42
Song:
Kaleidscope Dream by Klas Wahl. It's in the description. I would post the link, but my comment gets deleted.
Great reactions. Thanks for sharing. Totality is one of those life-changing events where the Cosmos reaches out and touches us on many levels.
This is beautiful. Thank you NPR
Was lucky enough to see the 2017 one in my cousin’s front yard in SC! Planning on going to TX to see the 2024 one next week but the weather forecast is not looking good….crossing fingers the skies clear up
I saw the one in El Salvador in 91, it was an amazing phenomenon, once in a lifetime
Me too
Now just imagine what's gonna happen at the 2023 Annular and the 2024 Total Eclipses...like yeah...
Nye has an image to uphold... of course he went with the 13.99 glasses. And he rocked them,
Thank you from south Australia
Goosebumps! Bummed I didn’t get to experience it in Hawaii
I was at either The Woodland Alters or Serpent Mound for this one and will be there for the next one in April.
Wonderful.
why is there a link to npr wikipedia page on youtube?
So excited ❤❤😊
Is someone chopping onions in here? Damn.
I wondered the same thing!
beautiful❤❤❤
every time i see this video idk why, i just want to start crying
Where is that very large crowd gathering at 4:42?
Here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homestead_National_Monument_of_America
I watched the eclipse at the baseball game in Lincoln NE in this video. One of the most amazing things I've ever seen.
Man. I am cry
Few weeks away from the 2024. Can’t wait.
I would have cried, the while time of totality! I want to experience this!
The next one is a few weeks away and I'm gonna be smacked dab in the middle in northeast Ohio. I can't wait to experience this phenomenon like some many of u did!
I moved a thousand miles to see this thing. I was sick of where I was living anyway. No regrets!
Watching this in February 2024, a couple months away from the next total eclipse across the USA.
I'm planning to see it at the Neil Armstrong Museum in Ohio.
One more thing in my bucketlist want to watch a sloar eclipse onece in life 😭
☀️ I'm 60 years old and the next total Solar eclipse viewable from here in the UK isn't until 2090...damn! 🌚
I doubt most people will react this way after the 2nd eclipse!
Moon: \*partially gets in a way between earth and sun every 2 years\*
People:
I am imagining people are saying stuff in this solar eclipse event like.......
"Let me get my approved solar sunglasses.......I don't want to get blind!"
"When totality happens, it is like you are facing the end of the world!"
"I wonder if they might even shoot off fireworks as darkness happens completely for a moment....."
One nation under the sun
The fire nation
5:03
Wait...aren’t you not supposed to look at the sun😂
awwww
OMG SO COOL there is a moon eclpies happing Novemeber 30 2020
this took an unexpected religious turn
Lol for real. What a joke.
Yay! Great eclipse and cool video showing so many people enjoying it. I feel sorry for those who missed it due to clouds, and hope they have better weather next time. Minor downer that some people used it to push their supernatural religion on others instead of leaving it inclusive and welcoming for everyone.
Jon, while I take your point, I don't think anyone was consciously pushing their religion on anyone else, merely seeing the event through their own perspective. It just seems that no one else of another belief needed to frame their reaction that way. Being inclusive also means being tolerant on the other side. Namaste.
This deserves more views, so beautiful.
Once every 375 years said on 2017 and its happening again tomorrow after 7 years. 777
5:07 head phone users be warned
THERES NO TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE DAY ON BRAZIL :(
I've never seen a total solar eclipse. 😢Because I'm in Vietnam 😢
Felt that, bro
There totality chant couldn’t of been more off 😂😂😂😂😂
Dont Look Up
One nation of Sun worshippers. Even so I'm sure it was still absolutely amazing to see. And maybe people will finally understand there really is a Creator in heaven! He made both of those heavenly lights on the 4th day.
🤟🤩
How many of these people at that memorial building have gotten and died from covid? Let me know.
You know this was 4 years ago right?
Yeah, go right ahead and clap and cheer.
But to me, this is sad.
Why? Because earthquakes, hurricanes,
tornadoes and all kinds of atrocities will follow.
`
These things happen anyway without eclipses.
Way to live your life in fear, bro. Good luck with that!
▓▒░ @ Kit Canyon ▬ _L.O.L._ ` ☻
Nonsense. ` Who says I live my life in fear.
There is no fear when we trust in
Yeshua / Jesus Christ / the Messiah.
Whatever earthquakes, hurricanes,
tornadoes and all kinds of atrocities occur
there will be no fear.

Today is Sunday where I'm at,

@@c1n9r6v3 LOL. Oh, aren't you so, very special. UA-cam has a personal assistant tasked just with watching for and deleting your comments. LOL. Narcist much, bro?
That's good that you don't fear things. So can you please explain why earthquakes and tornadoes and hurricanes happen many times every single year? There are not total solar eclipses every year.
Apparently your Bible has isn't giving you the correct information. How sad. But hey, you should be spending your last days on earth doing every single thing that God's commands of you. Isn't that correct?
Nobody understands this is a sign of coming judgement to America? Nobody?
no, cus it's been happening for thousands of years 💀
Bros 4:44
Typical NPR wooo-wooo touchy feely broadcast. If you didnt see it in person, YOU MISSED IT, It was fantastic
Ok Brandon. Make it all about politics.
@@kitcanyon658 Um....what Hillary?
@@dannyh8288 : Brandon, come on now, son. It's ok to show your true colors. You don't need to be so afraid. Real men speak their minds straight forwardly. Others......
And note. I'm not one of the brain dead republicans attempting to look smart. I'm a true conservative. So, don't be a coward.
@@kitcanyon658 Probably a RINO. We have enough of them in office. Id advise you to limit calling true conservatives Brandon.
@@dannyh8288 : Nope...That's just your lazy excuse because Johnny boy can't understand other people. But I like sparing with you because, you see, I feel that everyone should feel good about themselves. This is my way of making sure you get your daily dose of much needed self support.
They don't know what is next
"When the lamb open the 6th seal ,there was a great earthquake, the sun turned black and the moon turned red"
The 6th seal was opened
And we've all heard the trumpets
Indian 😭😩
THE SIGN RIGHT IT IS IN PROFHECY
i literally don't care about the people's reaction i just wanna see what it looked like. take your padding and stick it in your eclipse void
Not that cool 🤷🏻♂️
If you want to understand the eclipse, it's simple but simplex. Study these three gentlemen, and you will find your answer. Ken Wheeler, Santos Bonacci and Stan Tenen. You will see that it is all related to how a Torus Field works. Peace, I now know the Truth! Abundance, Balance, Harmony, Peace, Tranquility and One Love Brothers and Sisters.....
Idiot.
Be still and know that I Am God!
The Eucharist in the Catholic Church is just like this. The great equalizer. Everyone come to the table. Rich, poor, black, white, sinner or saint. Come to the table and be unified to the Cosmos by being unified to the Creator God who is Jesus Christ. Amen.
I'm so happy they interviewed a Muslim! I felt so included after seeing the Muslim. Please make it eclipsthe again soon.
A lot of people were interviewed. The fact that you extracted one person as being notable says more about you than about one person being in the video.
the color grading on this video is awful
I wonder if it was meant to mimic the way bright colors appear more muted during an eclipse. To me, the color grading gave the doc a certain tone and mood that was rather fitting.
@@jj53368 the whole video is like that though, not just the part during the eclipse
Haha, what's the deal with this awful color grade?
GOD WAS THERE
and we witnessed it …..
Don't you mean one nation under God?
No, that's not what the mean.
what idolatry! One days drive for a minutes adoration of the created thing.
Yes- and no.
This is liberalism at its best. Finding the nut bags that overreact.
Yea, you can always tell who didn't see totality.
There's a lot of people in the scene at 6:30. Which one is overreacting?
Paul Marado Until you've seen it for yourself, you can't understand what it's like. Pure amazement.
I told my sister, “nah, I won’t cry”. Look who’s crying now and can’t stop crying. 🙏🏽🙏🏾🙏🏼🫶🏼🫶🏽🫶🏻🫶🏿
