I seen a total eclipse in 1999 in Newquay Cornwall. Travelled 500 miles to watch. We watched it from an ancient burial ground. We weren't aware of that at the time. But seeing totality was incredible! It was very moving. Everything went cold and dark and all the birds flew over our heads to roost in the cliffs. It was just outstanding! I felt so lucky and still do!
I saw the 2017 eclipse, and even though no video can totally capture the experience, the shot at 3:13 or so is the most accurate of the golden ring effect that I've seen. Most videos have an up close image at that point, which is fine, but this one gives context and focus.
I have had that feeling Brian! Only it was a lunar eclipse. You could actually really see the spherical shape of the moon in the shadow and it was humbling. I thought the same same thing.... WOW the moon is this huge rock rock hurdling through space and the earth her partner, and I am on another rock hurdling through space. What an awesome phenomenon, and more awesome is I can comprehend it and bear witness. Just amazing.
That longest eclipse for 5000 years will also happen to fall on the 217th anniversary of the launching of Apollo 11, the first manned mission to land on the Moon. I was lucky enough to experience a full eclipse here in the UK in 1999. And honestly it was incredible. We had struggles from Devon (where I was staying with friends) to Cornwall, and had been stuck in traffic for ages. Eventually we just abandoned the car, and managed to congregate with friends and many many other people in the corner of a country lane, and watched in awe as it slowly got eerily darker... Suddenly the birds EXPLODED with noise, shrieking in fear and confusion, their instincts telling them to find a place to roost for the night. The people, meanwhile, got quieter and quieter, awe-struck silence sweeping over the crowd as one of the rarest and most incredible sights in nature was revealed to us all. Spontaneous applause broke out soon after - if there is anything we Brits love more than queuing it is applauding. Doesn't matter who, what, where,when, why or how - it is simply how we express admiration. All too quickly it was over. The avian population had yet another freak out as the Sun began to reappear, and we could hear livestock from nearby fields expressing their own 'appreciation' of the cosmic wonders happening before us. We found our vehicles, and repaired to the pub for luncheon, pints of cider, pool, and the swapping of how it had affected each of us. Genuinely one of the greatest experiences of my life. I was not yet even 19 then, I am nearly 43 now. And I want to see it again before I depart this realm.
This was the solar eclipse in the morning of 22 July 2009. I had a test in the morning and I was out in my garden with my books and all. I had no clear view of the sun and suddenly it was completely dark and I thought what happened. After a few minutes, darkness went away and continued with my study, went to school, wrote the test, came back and then realised after seeing the news that it was this rare solar eclipse that had occurred.
My daughter and I traveled to Oregon for one a few years back. It was among the most awe inspiring things I’ve witnessed. There are these things called sun snakes or sun serpents that slither across light surfaces. I don’t think we know what they are, but they are fascinating to see.
My family wanted to go to America for my birthday back in 2017 (June) I was like no way lets go in August made out id rather go for my cousins birthday in reality I just wanted them to experience the wonderful eclipse and give my family a moment to remember somehow they had no idea of the Eclipse until the actual day but they was happy they listened to me.
This was in Wonders of the Solar System, not Adventures in Space and Time. Specifically: 1. "Empire of the Sun" The first episode illustrates how the formation and behaviour of the Sun affects each planet in the Solar System. During this episode, Cox visits India to view and explain the workings of a total solar eclipse and the partial eclipses that occur on other planets.
I have seen the total eclipse once and also a partial eclipse once. They had the same effect as this view in india on the people around but not on such a grand scale.
By the way, the Hindu Panchang (calendar) can make the exact same predictions about the date (and time) and the duration of the solar eclipses which you are so proudly showing off. Some humility (other cultures may also have some useful knowledge) and a deeper perspective on things (sociologic significance of these religious gatherings) may also be of some use
The most beautiful amazing adorable gorgeous handsome professor in the world thank you for posting this gorgeous video the most precious inspiration and the best scientist who is the most intelligence expert on our solar system it magnificent to see the scientific at work thank you forever XOXO
If eclipse is a sign of some God than why does it happen in muslim countries where they are already muslims. It should only happen in places where there are no muslims. U are a religious idiot if u believe its a sign. It just a phenomenon that happens every few years.
His comments about faith and science are ridiculous. People from thousands of years ago learned the stars over generations of observation and data gathering, built beautiful builidings and monuments that helped keep up with the movement of stars and astronomical phenomenon. But they sure didn’t have all the fancy tools we do. We’ve seen so little of the universe, yeah we think so highly of what we know. And for being able to predict a solar eclipse, somebody is starving to death while you read this comment. We’ve got a long way to go so let’s not get too excited about predicting a solar eclipse. Bro
You've totally misunderstood his comments about faith and science. Yes people used to observe and gather data and predict the movements of celestial bodies. That's empirical data. They also made up stories about them and imagined them as powerful gods and goddesses. Faith. Yes we've got a really long way to go. I've no idea how that relates to what Brian Cox said.
@@garethwynn01 Those stories have tremendous sociologic and anthropologic significance which should not be disregarded. Also, we cannot totally discount that there could be a lot more in the universe than can be observed by our limited senses and processed thoroughly by us. These kinds of presentations disregard these aspects and reek of haughtiness. I myself am a man of science (a neurologist) and over the years have developed a sense of the importance of the other perspectives which I have mentioned above
B.B.C.- come get, me! Hello, it’s, ME!, Brittney Lee Hill Collier (Age: 33. Born March, the 12th, 1988.). My Destiny, is to be, a famous, British actress, and a Royal, for the, United Kingdom. To date, I figured out that, Henry Cavill (Age: 38. He is the famous, British actor, who plays, Superman. He played, Superman, in, “Man of Steel,” which came out in the year, 2013), Tom Ellis (Age: 42. He is the famous, British actor, who plays, Lucifer, on the American, television show, “Lucifer.”), Russell Brand (Age: 46. He is the famous, Comedian, and British actor, who married, Katy Perry), Johnathan Rhys Meyers (Age: 43. He is the famous, Swedish actor, famous for starring, on the show, “The Tudors.” He is also, very famous, for starring, in the movie, “Match Point.”), Louis Garrel (Age: 39. He is the famous, French actor, exalted, for starring, in the movie, “Ma Mere.” He is also, very famous, for starring, in the movie, “The Dreamers.”), Gene Kelly (Deceased: February, 2, 1996. He, is, the, famous, Hollywood American, actor- famous, for the movie, “Singin’ in the Rain,” and, “An American in Paris.” Gene- died, too soon- for us to be- Husband, and Wife. Gene- reincarnated, and is, currently, on his, next life :D - he is a, child, right now- at the, White Top, and he is, Gene Kelly- all over, again! For the time being, let’s call him- Gene Kelly, again- even though, currently, he may have a different name.), Carey Grant, Tony Curtis, and Richard Burton, are supposed to be my, Husbands-too. That means, all 7 of us, have it in our, Destiny, to be the, Kings, and Queen, of the, United Kingdom. Gosh, I’ve been trying to figure out, which famous, White actor, was my Husband (or, Husbands), since the year, 2011, or so. :D HAHAHA! So now, I’ll be traveling, back, to the, United Kingdom, from Fullerton, C.A. (Fullerton, C.A., is in the, Country, of, the United States, within the, County, of, Orange.). My, Son, Reign Aston Disick (Past Life: George V: Former King of the United Kingdom), who is, 6 years old, and born in the year, 2014 (he is popular for the show, “Keeping Up with the Kardashians”. He was, Scott Disick, and Kourtney Kardashians, Son.), will be joining us, in the, United Kingdom, as well. I went to the, United Kingdom, in 2020, during the, Global Pandemic. FACT (I’ve known the, Global Pandemic, was fake, since, it began. FACT). Now that I, know, who my, Husbands- are, I can travel, back, to the, United Kingdom- for a final time- and meet, and Marry them. I will be, meeting them, in the Borough of, Essex. YAY, for me :D ! I have, 6, Hot Husbands. I’m so excited! They are, super sexy: beautiful, fun, wild party guys, intense, confident, cocky, and genius, Celebrity. I am lucky. I know (already), that they will, value, Monarchy, and Tradition, just as much as, I do, by the time I finally meet them, in person. They better
And Brian Cox explanation for this is coincidence. The only conscious being we know of, ' humans', live on a planet where it just so happens that our moon fits absolutely perfectly into our sun sphere when viewed from earth. Just coincidental 🤔
@@garethwynn01 what is the problem with it ' not ' being a coincidence? And I have nothing to go on that has been unveiled. But, the odds, of sentient beings, witnessing this phenomenon on a planet, in a solar system, is bewildering. In a galaxy of billions of stars, with planets aplenty. You think that a perfect solar eclipse from earth is by chance?
Love you Brian from Patna (India).😍🇮🇳

All Indians are not idiots as he can see there. It's just that our government is not educating them well.
