As when the Sun, new risen,
Looks through the horizontal misty air, Shorn of his beams,or from behind the Moon, In dim eclipse, disastrous twilight sheds On half the nations, and with fear of change
Perplexes monarchs.
John Milton - 1667
God has created some amazing shows of the power of the Universe and todays solar eclipse is one of those. Now it could only be seen across Russia and China and parts of Canada. But I found out you could watch live feed through NASA TV. It was amazing. I was up at 330 am here on the west coast and saw the most beautiful images I'd ever seen next to the aurora borealis (northern lights) in Alaska. It was AWE-some. In a very spiritual way, you could really understand the power of God.
Now the images I took pictures of were from NASA TV and the different stages of the moon passing over. There was even a moment when the telescope picked up the clouds passing over and it created an ethereal picture. Stunning. I was fascinated. Enjoy the pictures I took and know that we can see it in the United States in 2017. You figure, thats only 9 years away. In perspective, my oldest will be 20 years old. Wow!
