We wont see it from the USA....

I believe its very limited areas of South America locations.

Dont quote me on that though

Edit to add...I pulled this from Wiki...

The eclipse will be visible over much of the southern Pacific Ocean, touching several small islands including Tuamotu in French Polynesia, Mangaia in the Cook Islands and Easter Island.

Fred Espenak, NASA Astrophysicist said: One of the most unique things about this particular eclipse is that it crosses a unique and interesting archaeological site: Easter Island. On Easter Island there are these great statues... There's a lot of mystery about these statues, but in any case, this is the first total eclipse that's hit the island in about 1,400 years

It seems rather ominous that darkness has fallen on Easter Island as though it's cautionary tale of cultural and enviromental dangers of over exploitation have gone unheeded.

Perhaps this darkness is a metaphor that this whole planet is in it's grip.

Or perhaps it is a result of sunlight being blocked by the Moon.
You never know.

Here is a map showing the path

If that is simply the case, Phage, perhaps you should run and hide. I hear that human sacrifices are required for this occassion.

I found this interesting, according to the article

The last time a total solar eclipse was visible from Easter Island was more than 13 centuries ago, on Sep. 24, 656 A.D., and the next time islanders get to see one will be 314 years from now, on Feb. 25, 2324.

And I thought I was the one deprived of solar eclipses...wow.

As it is allready here they sacrifices should be allready made.

Thank you so much for thinking about us and sharing this.
Wow. This was a treat!

Thank You!!!


Add: Fue un sueño!

Unbelievable! I have not seen an eclipse in way too many years.
Long live the livestream! (And el Grupo Ciclope de la Facultad de Informática de la Universidad Politécnica de Madrid y asociación Shelios )

Are you sure its natural?

I was lucky enough to see a total eclipse. The physiological impact is really quite remarkable, even understanding what you are seeing. It does strike at something pretty deep. After 19 years I remember it well but at the same time there is a certain feeling of unreality.
