Today's total eclipse was absolutely the astronomical highlight of my life! Please enjoy the entirety of this 3-minute video, combining 3 different videos that I captured into individual 20x time-lapse sequences. In the first two wide angle segments from different cameras, you can see the Moon's shadow racing across the clouds at over 1,500 miles per hour (~2,400 kph).
Thank you to the Adirondack Sky Center and Observatory for letting me join the solar viewing area at your "Totality in Tupper" event- I gave away close to 400 NASA stickers and had a blast sharing my telescope views with the crowd! I would also like to give a special thank you to some of social media followers who actually stopped by to say hi to me in person today- how awesome was that?! 😎🔭🌑☀️

Wishing you clear skies!
