Ligma eclipse

[-] Ithorian@hexbear.net 11 points 8 months ago

I'm going to try but don't have solid plans yet. It'll be about a four hour drive but every one says it'll totally worth it.

It's one of those things where you go "oh, that's why people believed in angry gods"

[-] Feinsteins_Ghost@hexbear.net 10 points 8 months ago

Not this one, no. The most recent passed one i was directly in the path of totality, or whatever they call it. Just stepped out the front door and watched.

I think it's the closest a total eclipse is coming to Philly for while, I knew someone who went down south in 2017 (the one Trump looked directly at).

I assume articles about the upcoming one all mention it, but if you're in North America there won't be another for more than 20 years, and it's even further from the great NE metropolis. But if you (and the ocean) can hold out til 2079 you can catch it in NYC wowee

[-] HexbearGPT@hexbear.net 4 points 8 months ago

None of us will be alive in 2079. doomjak

[-] Assian_Candor@hexbear.net 4 points 8 months ago

On the plus side a black sun casting shadow over the crumbling ruins of the deserted metropolis is going to be metal as fuck for the survivors

Let’s start making cult like communist prophesies about the blackened sky of 2079 now so that when it arrives, a millenarian group will be awaiting the sign to start the communist revolution based on the ancient prophesy. It should work as science and facts will be completely inscrutable and lost to the whirlwind of time and history by then. Everyone will be living in their own realities, but the communists with the blackened sky prophesy will be proven right and gain the momentum to overthrow whatever nightmarish brutal remnants of capitalism continue to terrorize the badly destroyed earth.

i saw the 2017 one and i'm not near this one so no. would recommend to people though, very unique experience to see totality

[-] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 5 points 8 months ago

Yesssssss it's on my birthday and I have family in the path can't pass that shit up

[-] GeorgeZBush@hexbear.net 5 points 8 months ago

I plan to. Took a few days off, gonna drive around 3 and a half hours upstate. Hope the weather is decent.

[-] FactuallyUnscrupulou@hexbear.net 3 points 8 months ago

Upstate New York is buzzing with excitement about the eclipse. Rochester police are worried about traffic congestion from all the folks visiting. The DEC rangers are concerned people are gonna get hurt trying to hike up mountain tops.

[-] GeorgeZBush@hexbear.net 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Yeah I'm going to Syracuse. It's just within the path of totality and it's a lot closer to me than Buffalo or Rochester. Hoping it wont be as insane there, but we'll see. I might even just find some random small town in the area. As long as I can get a clear view.

[-] AlpineSteakHouse@hexbear.net 5 points 8 months ago

I have a family friend in the direct path down in Texas. But then I would have to deal with Texas so idk.

[-] FumpyAer@hexbear.net 3 points 8 months ago

Yes I have it in my calendar and I've got the safe viewing lenses and telescope lens cover.

[-] DamarcusArt@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 8 months ago

Nah, for me it's lunar or nothing.

[-] HexbearGPT@hexbear.net 2 points 8 months ago

God i want to. I wish! Enjoy it for me. Post pics.

[-] goose@hexbear.net 2 points 8 months ago

Yeah, we saw the last one in South Carolina, and it's definitely worth doing again now that our kids are old enough to remember it.

The Women's Final Four is in Cleveland on the 5th and 7th, so we're staying in Ohio and will try to get some tickets to the games if our team makes it. If they don't... guess we're finding out what there is to do in the Cleveland area other than the zoo

[-] Abracadaniel@hexbear.net 1 points 8 months ago

Yep, taking a road trip to Texas for it. Totality is spectacular.

[-] Assian_Candor@hexbear.net 1 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

I’m at 99% unfortunately but should still be cool to see. Totality is on another level but a 6 hour drive away, it’s not really possible to make it work

[-] Beaver@hexbear.net 1 points 8 months ago

Family lives near the path of totality, so we're going for a visit! Tough to swing the PTO for that day, but we'll making it happen.

[-] PM_ME_YOUR_FOUCAULTS@hexbear.net 1 points 8 months ago

Oh hell yeah. My kid is obsessed with space. He's going to be so hype

[-] Philosoraptor@hexbear.net 1 points 8 months ago

My wife is from Texas, so we're going to kill two birds with one stone and go see it and also fight her most racist relatives.
