Don't talk to any strange motherships on your travels

It is what is on the dark side of the moon that worries me.
Drive safe if traveling. Happy day to all. (Wonders if the younger Fleet members or Aussie's will get this?)

On August 21st of this year, I plan on looking at the light side turning dark, and day turns into night - The Total Eclipse of the Sun. My family has already staked out camping spots in a State park where the totality will last about 3 minutes, and the whole transition from light to dark and back to light will last almost 20 minutes.

That's awesome. We sell special sunglasses at work specifically for this particular eclipse. Guess it's gonna be a good show :)

I am going to attempt to make my own video of it using my daughters Canon Rebel T6 DSLR with a 70x-250x Zoom and Wide Angle lenses combined. I'm hoping that a 64GB or 128GB MicroSD card will do. I'm going to set the camera up and try just catching the sun this weekend or next to test out the filtering film I bought and sandwich between to clear UV filters. If the photos turn out, I'll post them.
