Here’s some 360° video of this Monday’s total Solar Eclipse. Witnessing this event in person was amazing. We drove 16 hours down to Greenville South Carolina only to be stuck in clouds. Not to worry though, because that was a major fear of ours, we were prepared and rushed in the opposite direction of the … Continued
Once in a lifetime. Well, only if you think a total solar eclipse is the end of the world that is. This afternoon, starting at around 1:09pm and lasting until just after 4pm Eastern the sun will begin to be blotted out by the Moon. It’s funny how that works, the moon is the … Continued
Here are two time-lapses of the night sky from two very different perspectives. The first one is the standard watch the stars pass by overhead in a circle around the viewer. It’s pretty nice, Aryeh Nirenberg created it by leaving his camera on all night on Assateague Island in Maryland. I do enjoy watching … Continued

My worst fears are coming true. That is the above trailer for the first spin off of the Star Wars franchise. Tell me, does it look like a traditional Star Wars film?
