Celestia planetarium software has saved my sanity on countless cloudy nights for both its accurate real-time sky display, and as a creative outlet to observe rare and/or currently spaceflight-limited events by virtually traveling across time and space. The vids and clips to this gallery and more can be found at http://www.youtube.com/@saberzastrovidz . Enjoy!

2017 and 2024 Total Solar Eclipses: This Is Getting Too Easy

Both eclipse paths intersected a few hours drive from me in southern Illinois. This could spoil a guy. The friend I visited for the events had both totalities run a path directly through her backyard. Why be an eclipse chaser when the eclipses chase you? Enjoying the show, Stephen.
