Real-time video (10 minutes) of scenery during and after eclipse
totality
Skip ahead to about the 5 minute mark for totality. I was joined shortly
before the eclipse by a former Navy man, a welder from Coeur
d'Alene. You can hear our conversation as well as the cheers from the
crowd at the campground across the river. The video camera's
auto-exposure makes it difficult to see how dark it really got, but at
totality, I could see Venus and stars in the sky, and it was as dark
as night.
This was an awesome experience, and I recommend that you go see an
eclipse in totality if at all possible (the next one in the US will be in
2024).
