That prominence is the single most FAMOUS prominence in the history of the Sun. Normally, 50, maybe 100 people ever see a prominence, but this one was seen by 10s of millions?

It was far brighter and clearer than any other I've seen. Made for a Ruby Ring effect it was so strong.




So...those that finally got to see totality, remember this the next time someone says "I've seen dozens of eclipses, they're nothing burgers, I'm not going to drive 20 minutes to see this one". Some people are just bull headed beyond reason. Slap them.
