xkcd #2914: Eclipse Coolnesss
(imgs.xkcd.com)
A community for a webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language.
We had one when I was a kid, and they had us poke a hole in a piece of paper, and then stand with our backs to the eclipse and watch it's shadow develop on the ground as projected through the paper. It was cool, but not as cool as actually seeing it directly.
