It is hard to describe this unbelievable spectacle that left me speechless for several minutes and still triggers emotions just remembering those two and a half minutes of totality. So, it is better to leave this to professionals like Tim Urban, one of my favorite bloggers, who wrote: “I saw one sphere positioned in front of another sphere, with two other spheres—Venus and Jupiter—floating nearby. More than ever before, it felt obvious that I was standing on the edge of a fifth sphere. For the first time in my life, I was looking at the Solar System......” (Tim Urban, Tales From the Eclipse)
