There were unprecedented numbers of viewers all over the continental USA watching this Great American Eclipse.
.
Coordinated participation of amateur astronomers agreed to contribute data they collected for an organized project.
.
Most viewers were not very informed.
.
Some flat-earthers showed up, reluctantly, or hoping to prove that the whole thing was a big hoax.
.
A lot like the Freemasons who came to Fatima, Oct. 13th, 1917, trying to prove it was a hoax.
.
There are videos of some flat-earthers saying "THERE IS NO MOON IN THE SKY" just before the eclipse started.
.
As though anyone was expecting you could see the new moon when it's right next to the sun!
.
But this OP video of the 3 guys out in some farmer's field right in the path of totality is really interesting.
.
It has a good production quality about it and manages to bring a human element in as well.
.
It's a fun watch.
.
I especially enjoy the part where after all the preparation one guy forgot to take off the lens cap so he got no photos.
.
Fortunately they had more than one camera.
.
Can you imagine saving up for a great rig for a year just for one event, and then leaving the lens cap on?
