Jetkwondo Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 I find it ironic that Buffalo will be totally darkened today... Is this symbolic of an end for their Super Bowl hopes OR a rise from the ashes event! LOL Sabine Stanley, a Bloomberg distinguished professor in Earth and planetary sciences at Johns Hopkins University, is the author of “What’s Hidden Inside Planets?” I’ve always been amazed that total solar eclipses are possible. The sun, an 870,000-mile-wide ball of gas over 90 million miles away from us gets completely blocked by the moon, a 2,100-mile-wide ball of rock 240,000 miles away. If the sun were a bit bigger or closer, or if the moon were a bit smaller or farther, totality would not occur. There’s no scientific reason for this; it’s a wondrous coincidence. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like Rodgers will be too busy performing some sort of sacrificial ritual during the eclipse to look at it. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d bet every cent I make the rest of my life that Aaron Rodgers 1.) doesn’t believe it’s an eclipse, 2.) does believe it’s a conspiracy to get people to wear these glasses so our government can do ungodly things to them, and 3.) is 100% convinced he knows better than all of us, even if he knows nothing at all. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
