Black Hole Sun
Standing out by a cornfield in southern Illinois eagerly awaiting a total solar eclipse one tends to learn about who can handle heat and who can't. Before the eclipse started I looked at my phone and it was giving a temperature of 91 degrees and a heat index of around 110. I like to think that I handled the heat a little better than others in the area I was in. But needless to say I think everyone was boiling in the heat, giving off a summer stench that is unmistakable in the form of sweat. When we thought it couldn't get any worse we starting starting up at the sky eagerly for the moment we all were waiting for. When for a few brief moments you could see a black hole sun. When the time came our heads were to the sky till the black hole sun would disappear.
Anyway, the Corona from the sun are visible from behind the moon during the Total Solar Eclipse, as seen from Thomas Town Road between Raddle and Jacob Illinois. 8/21/2017.
