All Eyes On The Sky Today!

My glasses that I received to participate in the partial eclipse at the Vicksburg National Military Park today. 


At 1:00 pm a fifteen-minute program was scheduled detailing the different astronomical phenomenon that happened during the four years of the Civil War. It was timed to happen just before the eclipse at the park.  We had about 83% of the total eclipse.

Some pictures I took while watching the partial eclipse.  

I noticed a lot of dragon flies flying around and of course, they were confused because they come out at twilight.

It was nice to share the excitement with everyone who attended.  

Water was offered to all who came.

Eyes on the sky!

The temperature also dropped two degrees during the eclipse.
