A partial eclipse is like a cool sunset. A total eclipse is like someone broke the sky.

Went to Houston Space Center today and there was a presentation on the eclipse. I guess they will have an event there on ~~Tuesday~~ Monday, but at HSC they are only going to be 90%.

I'm planning to see it from Dallas, but I really wanted to speak up when she said "it's still gonna be great".

It will be nothing compared to actually being in totality. And I don't know why anybody in greater Houston that has the day off would spend it at HSC instead of actually inside the path.

I hope you don't go looking for it on Tuesday, cause the eclipse is on Monday the 8th

Good catch lol. I'm all jumbled up. I'll be in Dallas Monday, and coming back to Houston on Tuesday.
