Here's a closeup of the bright prominence that many people reported seeing with their naked eye during the eclipse. This was captured using two telescopes- at 2000mm and at 3650mm.
These prominences are part of the solar chromosphere, and normally require a specially modified telescope to view. Not during an eclipse!
Fascinating! Looks like Duolingo meets Pokemon Go. Excited for my friend Mark's new app, "Vizulingo -Virtual Reality Language Learning w/ Storytelling" now @Kickstarter kickstarter.com/projects/mar…

Laughing SO HARD when this came on and then… nice to calm the frantic energy of launch viewing while we wait for more! (@TSStarfish is this your new sound?!?)
MECO = *Most* Engines Cut Off is a hilarious new use of the acronym by @SpaceX (usually it is “Main Engine Cut Off” which means *all* engines)

In a way, that may feel a lot like the first test flight of Super Heavy + Starship. A successful test w/ some huge wins, some great data, and also being maddeningly close to some even bigger wins In case: much to be learned from the data! And great fun to watch. Kudos, @spacex
