I was able to witness the solar eclipse last time. But, I was a bit disappointed, a bit of a hype for me. Did you see it?
A solar eclipse (as seen from the planet Earth) is a type of eclipse that occurs when the Moon passes between the Sun and Earth, and that is very cool you where able to witness it
My family and I just didn't really love it, and felt like it would give us more satisfaction, but that's just us. It wasn't terrible though lol
yeah it can be a little boring if you dont understand the event 100%, The Moon's orbit must cross Earth's ecliptic plane in order for an eclipse
Yes, It was very brief, very brief.

That's pretty cool, but it was so fast!
Solar eclipse
A solar eclipse occurs when a portion of the Earth is engulfed in a shadow cast by the Moon which fully or partially blocks ("occults") sunlight. This occurs when the Sun, Moon and Earth are aligned. Such alignment coincides with a new moon (syzygy) indicating the Moon is closest to the ecliptic plane. In a total eclipse, the disk of the Sun is fully obscured by the Moon. In partial and annular eclipses, only part of the Sun is obscured.

Solar eclipse of December 2, 1880
A partial solar eclipse occurred on December 2, 1880 during spring. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partly obscuring the image of the Sun for a viewer on Earth. A partial solar eclipse occurs in the polar regions of the Earth when the center of the Moon's shadow misses the Earth.
It was the last of four eclipses that took place that year, the last two that were partial. It was the last
