    It is actually quite interesting how similar in perspective-skewed size the sun anf moon are.

      Depends a lot on the date/time, the moon’s size in the sky can shift a LOT based on a lot of factors to being a fraction of the sun’s size to being much larger than the sun (or I think supermoons look bigger than the sun, idk)

        I got to see 2 eclipses this year, and they were very different due to the relative size of the moon appearing smaller in August than in April.

        FYI, annular eclipse WAY less-cool.
