work you do to take images of the sky
work you do to take images of the sky from really scenic place yes so my work
from really scenic place yes so my work
from really scenic place yes so my work is connection between Earth and sky I’d
is connection between Earth and sky I’d

they can connect with science yeah
they can connect with science yeah through this that’s a way of science
through this that’s a way of science
through this that’s a way of science communication that’s true and you know
communication that’s true and you know
communication that’s true and you know it’s interesting I feel like you two are
it’s interesting I feel like you two are
it’s interesting I feel like you two are representing both yourselves and also
representing both yourselves and also
representing both yourselves and also the sort of many thousands probably
the sort of many thousands probably
the sort of many thousands probably millions of people that are gonna be
millions of people that are gonna be
millions of people that are gonna be watching this eclipse right yeah and
watching this eclipse right yeah and
watching this eclipse right yeah and it’s it’s this thing that brings us
it’s it’s this thing that brings us
it’s it’s this thing that brings us together it’s the thing that brought the
together it’s the thing that brought the
together it’s the thing that brought the four of us here to sit and talk and so
four of us here to sit and talk and so
four of us here to sit and talk and so we certainly want to talk about that we
we certainly want to talk about that we
we certainly want to talk about that we want y’all to ask us about that but
want y’all to ask us about that but
want y’all to ask us about that but let’s dig into some scientist ask you
let’s dig into some scientist ask you
let’s dig into some scientist ask you something about the Eclipse however they
something about the Eclipse however they
something about the Eclipse however they are and what is really the science
are and what is really the science
are and what is really the science information that we are going to get
information that we are going to get
information that we are going to get from what why is it so important to
from what why is it so important to
from what why is it so important to astronomers yeah are they really rare
astronomers yeah are they really rare
astronomers yeah are they really rare they you know solar total solar eclipses
they you know solar total solar eclipses
they you know solar total solar eclipses are actually pretty weird there are only
are actually pretty weird there are only
are actually pretty weird there are only a couple every few years you expect to
a couple every few years you expect to
a couple every few years you expect to see some solar eclipses every every year
see some solar eclipses every every year
see some solar eclipses every every year because it’s you know sort of the Sun
because it’s you know sort of the Sun
because it’s you know sort of the Sun and the moon orbiting but total solar
and the moon orbiting but total solar
and the moon orbiting but total solar eclipses are special right because
eclipses are special right because
eclipses are special right because that special moment where the moon’s
that special moment where the moon’s
that special moment where the moon’s orbit aligns with our orbit aligns with
orbit aligns with our orbit aligns with
orbit aligns with our orbit aligns with the sun’s orbit and you get this perfect
the sun’s orbit and you get this perfect
the sun’s orbit and you get this perfect straight line shot it’s really amazing
straight line shot it’s really amazing
straight line shot it’s really amazing so that’s actually very rare and it’s
so that’s actually very rare and it’s
so that’s actually very rare and it’s also very rare to have it be in a place
also very rare to have it be in a place
also very rare to have it be in a place that people can see right so 70% of our
that people can see right so 70% of our
that people can see right so 70% of our planet is made of water so the ocean
planet is made of water so the ocean
planet is made of water so the ocean gets to see quite a bit of it and it’s
gets to see quite a bit of it and it’s
gets to see quite a bit of it and it’s awesome but have this special moment
awesome but have this special moment
awesome but have this special moment where we can see it and not just we
where we can see it and not just we
where we can see it and not just we sitting here in Oregon beautiful Central
sitting here in Oregon beautiful Central
sitting here in Oregon beautiful Central Oregon by the way but also a large swath
Oregon by the way but also a large swath
Oregon by the way but also a large swath of the u.s. we’ll get to see it yeah
of the u.s. we’ll get to see it yeah
of the u.s. we’ll get to see it yeah it’s a special over for the shadow of
it’s a special over for the shadow of
it’s a special over for the shadow of the moon to start from Oregon Coast all
the moon to start from Oregon Coast all
the moon to start from Oregon Coast all the way to South Carolina and at the
the way to South Carolina and at the
the way to South Carolina and at the crazy speed of 2500 miles – $1,500 so
crazy speed of 2500 miles – $1,500 so
crazy speed of 2500 miles – $1,500 so this is four to six times the speed of
this is four to six times the speed of
this is four to six times the speed of sound
sound
sound yeah it’s truck that’s why we cannot
yeah it’s truck that’s why we cannot
yeah it’s truck that’s why we cannot hatch
hatch
hatch we cannot chase the shadow on our plane
we cannot chase the shadow on our plane
we cannot chase the shadow on our plane tomorrow the shadow just goes over
tomorrow the shadow just goes over
tomorrow the shadow just goes over but speaking of eclipses being rare you
but speaking of eclipses being rare you
but speaking of eclipses being rare you know in fact if you we just sit on one
know in fact if you we just sit on one
know in fact if you we just sit on one point and wait for the solar eclipses a
point and wait for the solar eclipses a
point and wait for the solar eclipses a long time 330 years yeah there are
long time 330 years yeah there are
long time 330 years yeah there are places in the US two of them in
places in the US two of them in
places in the US two of them in particular that haven’t seen a total
particular that haven’t seen a total
particular that haven’t seen a total solar eclipse in a thousand years
solar eclipse in a thousand years
solar eclipse in a thousand years yeah that’s why because the path is very
yeah that’s why because the path is very
yeah that’s why because the path is very small it’s very narrow it’s quite long
small it’s very narrow it’s quite long
small it’s very narrow it’s quite long but very narrow less than 100 miles
but very narrow less than 100 miles
but very narrow less than 100 miles usually for this one is about 60 to 70
usually for this one is about 60 to 70
usually for this one is about 60 to 70 miles so it’s easy to miss a total solar
miles so it’s easy to miss a total solar
miles so it’s easy to miss a total solar eclipse not a partial one but total one
eclipse not a partial one but total one
eclipse not a partial one but total one that’s why it’s called
that’s why it’s called
that’s why it’s called once-in-a-lifetime experience unless you
once-in-a-lifetime experience unless you
once-in-a-lifetime experience unless you travel technically I mean the last time
travel technically I mean the last time
travel technically I mean the last time we’ve had a total solar eclipse over the
we’ve had a total solar eclipse over the
we’ve had a total solar eclipse over the US was just under a hundred years ago so
US was just under a hundred years ago so
US was just under a hundred years ago so I mean if you eat your vitamins each of
I mean if you eat your vitamins each of
I mean if you eat your vitamins each of veggies you know work out real well you
veggies you know work out real well you
veggies you know work out real well you can see more than one so we’ll start now
can see more than one so we’ll start now
can see more than one so we’ll start now you and me another coast to coast yeah I
you and me another coast to coast yeah I
you and me another coast to coast yeah I know it was the previous one in the US
know it was the previous one in the US
know it was the previous one in the US was 1979 I was one year old I wasn’t I
was 1979 I was one year old I wasn’t I
was 1979 I was one year old I wasn’t I was not here yeah so but it’s still you
was not here yeah so but it’s still you
was not here yeah so but it’s still you know it’s four decades of no eclipse no
know it’s four decades of no eclipse no
know it’s four decades of no eclipse no total eclipse with such a large
total eclipse with such a large
total eclipse with such a large so that’s why this eclipse is so
so that’s why this eclipse is so
so that’s why this eclipse is so important to people of this country also
important to people of this country also
important to people of this country also important to many others coming from
important to many others coming from
important to many others coming from international nations because it’s a
international nations because it’s a
international nations because it’s a it’s an eclipse during the summer it’s
it’s an eclipse during the summer it’s
it’s an eclipse during the summer it’s pretty long two minutes yeah it could be
pretty long two minutes yeah it could be
pretty long two minutes yeah it could be up to seven but even two minutes it’s
up to seven but even two minutes it’s
up to seven but even two minutes it’s quite easy yeah don’t get people excited
quite easy yeah don’t get people excited
quite easy yeah don’t get people excited they are not two minutes do most people
they are not two minutes do most people
they are not two minutes do most people who observe the Eclipse for the first
who observe the Eclipse for the first
who observe the Eclipse for the first time it looks like two seconds it’s
time it looks like two seconds it’s
time it looks like two seconds it’s quick so don’t plan too much for the
quick so don’t plan too much for the
quick so don’t plan too much for the Eclipse you know people plan for all
Eclipse you know people plan for all
Eclipse you know people plan for all sorts of imaging with six cameras and
sorts of imaging with six cameras and
sorts of imaging with six cameras and when it happens yeah they’re just
when it happens yeah they’re just
when it happens yeah they’re just they’re like a caveman open you can’t do
they’re like a caveman open you can’t do
they’re like a caveman open you can’t do anything because some people well yeah
anything because some people well yeah
anything because some people well yeah because sometimes only deep inside us
because sometimes only deep inside us
because sometimes only deep inside us are affected by the Eclipse absolutely
are affected by the Eclipse absolutely
are affected by the Eclipse absolutely 100% right Lake I want to ask my and
100% right Lake I want to ask my and
100% right Lake I want to ask my and Rupert if you all had any questions
Rupert if you all had any questions
Rupert if you all had any questions about the Eclipse in particular because
about the Eclipse in particular because
about the Eclipse in particular because we don’t mind just about facts that you
we don’t mind just about facts that you
we don’t mind just about facts that you we want to know if you were thinking
we want to know if you were thinking
we want to know if you were thinking there was there anything about the
there was there anything about the
there was there anything about the Eclipse that you wanted to know well my
Eclipse that you wanted to know well my
Eclipse that you wanted to know well my question was answered how rare is it

mention to you especially to hire the the current young generation is also
the current young generation is also
the current young generation is also called the Eclipse generation in the US
called the Eclipse generation in the US
called the Eclipse generation in the US because in the next 35 years we are
because in the next 35 years we are
because in the next 35 years we are going to have five total solar eclipses
going to have five total solar eclipses
going to have five total solar eclipses in the US this this century is quite we
in the US this this century is quite we
in the US this this century is quite we made a plan earlier that we’re gonna
made a plan earlier that we’re gonna
made a plan earlier that we’re gonna watch to the next one to 2024 24 2024
watch to the next one to 2024 24 2024
watch to the next one to 2024 24 2024 it’s gonna happen in the Northeast US so
it’s gonna happen in the Northeast US so
it’s gonna happen in the Northeast US so you’re from Boston so you can just go
you’re from Boston so you can just go
you’re from Boston so you can just go visit your family there’ll be one over

2024 don’t miss it but yeah there are
2024 don’t miss it but yeah there are many coming behind it so if you can’t
many coming behind it so if you can’t
many coming behind it so if you can’t make this one tomorrow you really should
make this one tomorrow you really should
make this one tomorrow you really should you can make the one in 2024 it’s
you can make the one in 2024 it’s
you can make the one in 2024 it’s definitely not gonna be in a what is the
definitely not gonna be in a what is the
definitely not gonna be in a what is the one most important science part about
one most important science part about
one most important science part about eclipse that astronomers are chasing it
eclipse that astronomers are chasing it
eclipse that astronomers are chasing it so well I mean we we chase anything in
so well I mean we we chase anything in
so well I mean we we chase anything in the sky we just indiscriminately it’s
the sky we just indiscriminately it’s
the sky we just indiscriminately it’s awesome I mean black holes aren’t the
awesome I mean black holes aren’t the
awesome I mean black holes aren’t the coolest thing to be clear that’s my job
coolest thing to be clear that’s my job
coolest thing to be clear that’s my job but there are many things are still left
but there are many things are still left
but there are many things are still left to know by setting the Eclipse my
to know by setting the Eclipse my
to know by setting the Eclipse my favorite fact actually is that we proved
favorite fact actually is that we proved
favorite fact actually is that we proved Einstein’s theory of general relativity
Einstein’s theory of general relativity
Einstein’s theory of general relativity using in eclipse which i think is super
using in eclipse which i think is super
using in eclipse which i think is super cool yeah 1918 Einstein was out talking
cool yeah 1918 Einstein was out talking
cool yeah 1918 Einstein was out talking about all the things with general
about all the things with general
about all the things with general relativity and people were like push ah
relativity and people were like push ah
relativity and people were like push ah that’s not true and so what they did was
that’s not true and so what they did was
that’s not true and so what they did was they need it you either need something
they need it you either need something
they need it you either need something very massive or you need highly precise
very massive or you need highly precise
very massive or you need highly precise instruments so what they had was
instruments so what they had was
instruments so what they had was something very massive in the Sun and
something very massive in the Sun and
something very massive in the Sun and they had the moon crossing in front of
they had the moon crossing in front of
they had the moon crossing in front of it and basically what happened was there
it and basically what happened was there
it and basically what happened was there was a star cluster behind the Eclipse
was a star cluster behind the Eclipse
was a star cluster behind the Eclipse and general relativity argues that very
and general relativity argues that very
and general relativity argues that very massive things bend space-time and so
massive things bend space-time and so
massive things bend space-time and so there is a precise measurement of how
there is a precise measurement of how
there is a precise measurement of how much less our light which would have
much less our light which would have
much less our light which would have been bent if general relativity were
been bent if general relativity were
been bent if general relativity were true as opposed to Newton’s law and they
true as opposed to Newton’s law and they
true as opposed to Newton’s law and they the eclipse happened everybody was in
the eclipse happened everybody was in
the eclipse happened everybody was in shock and awe and then they did the
shock and awe and then they did the
shock and awe and then they did the results and they found out general
results and they found out general
results and they found out general activity was right a star was born an
activity was right a star was born an
activity was right a star was born an interesting is that it was found out
interesting is that it was found out
interesting is that it was found out British astronomer for German scientists
British astronomer for German scientists
British astronomer for German scientists during the peak of the war yes so that
during the peak of the war yes so that
during the peak of the war yes so that shows how Eclipse or science in general
shows how Eclipse or science in general
shows how Eclipse or science in general can bring people together and break the
can bring people together and break the
can bring people together and break the political boundaries that’s really cool
political boundaries that’s really cool
political boundaries that’s really cool what you said there I think I understood
what you said there I think I understood
what you said there I think I understood I don’t think I actually understood
I don’t think I actually understood
I don’t think I actually understood about 75% of that’s really proud of
about 75% of that’s really proud of
about 75% of that’s really proud of myself now I mean that was that’s my
myself now I mean that was that’s my
myself now I mean that was that’s my favorite sort of like historical science
favorite sort of like historical science
favorite sort of like historical science but there is still ongoing science that
but there is still ongoing science that
but there is still ongoing science that we’re learning right now right there’s
we’re learning right now right there’s
we’re learning right now right there’s stuff you can learn about the Sun so you
stuff you can learn about the Sun so you
stuff you can learn about the Sun so you can only see the corona when the went
can only see the corona when the went
can only see the corona when the went well with some blocking technology in
well with some blocking technology in
well with some blocking technology in this case we have the moon to do it for
this case we have the moon to do it for
this case we have the moon to do it for us so you can see learn things about the
us so you can see learn things about the
us so you can see learn things about the corona and why it’s a million times
corona and why it’s a million times
corona and why it’s a million times hotter than the sun’s surface we still
hotter than the sun’s surface we still
hotter than the sun’s surface we still don’t know the answer to that question
don’t know the answer to that question
don’t know the answer to that question we constantly see the outer corona by
we constantly see the outer corona by
we constantly see the outer corona by satellites but not the inner ones so
satellites but not the inner ones so
satellites but not the inner ones so that’s why it’s also important to
that’s why it’s also important to
that’s why it’s also important to astronomers to capture the inner corona
astronomers to capture the inner corona
astronomers to capture the inner corona and then complete it by the satellite
and then complete it by the satellite
and then complete it by the satellite view from the outer Crone
view from the outer Crone
view from the outer Crone that’s why it’s even available for
that’s why it’s even available for
that’s why it’s even available for amateur astronomers to take precise
amateur astronomers to take precise
amateur astronomers to take precise images and share it with scientists to
images and share it with scientists to
images and share it with scientists to complete this view of the Sun atmosphere
complete this view of the Sun atmosphere
complete this view of the Sun atmosphere really so an amateur photographer or
really so an amateur photographer or
really so an amateur photographer or astronomer could could actually
astronomer could could actually
astronomer could could actually contribute us yeah yeah the overall
contribute us yeah yeah the overall
contribute us yeah yeah the overall knowledge and in fact many are there are

are speaking about eclipses one part for
are speaking about eclipses one part for general public about the fascinating and
general public about the fascinating and
general public about the fascinating and dramatic change of light that we see so
dramatic change of light that we see so
dramatic change of light that we see so if all part of nature reacts to Eclipse
if all part of nature reacts to Eclipse
if all part of nature reacts to Eclipse during totality in partial you don’t see
during totality in partial you don’t see
during totality in partial you don’t see much you don’t see any changes but in a
much you don’t see any changes but in a
much you don’t see any changes but in a total eclipse especially the last two
total eclipse especially the last two
total eclipse especially the last two minutes before totality the change of
minutes before totality the change of
minutes before totality the change of light is not linear it just dropped
light is not linear it just dropped
light is not linear it just dropped all the sudden so it surprised everybody
all the sudden so it surprised everybody
all the sudden so it surprised everybody because you look around and almost fine
because you look around and almost fine
because you look around and almost fine of course the shadows are very sharp
of course the shadows are very sharp
of course the shadows are very sharp when we get close to totality but that
when we get close to totality but that
when we get close to totality but that last two-minute really surprisingly
last two-minute really surprisingly
last two-minute really surprisingly change everything and you see the birds
change everything and you see the birds
change everything and you see the birds are flying back to the nest mosquito or
are flying back to the nest mosquito or
are flying back to the nest mosquito or flying answer coming out and then
flying answer coming out and then
flying answer coming out and then absolute silence during totality unless
absolute silence during totality unless
absolute silence during totality unless people are screaming five to fifteen
people are screaming five to fifteen
people are screaming five to fifteen degrees for a night we have change of
degrees for a night we have change of
degrees for a night we have change of temperature during totality you you feel
temperature during totality you you feel
temperature during totality you you feel the wind and breeze or some clouds
the wind and breeze or some clouds
the wind and breeze or some clouds forming sometimes due to totality so a
forming sometimes due to totality so a
forming sometimes due to totality so a lot of changes happening so up here
lot of changes happening so up here
lot of changes happening so up here where it’s where it where we have a lot
where it’s where it where we have a lot
where it’s where it where we have a lot not a lot of light pollution and the
not a lot of light pollution and the
not a lot of light pollution and the moon actually completely blocks out the
moon actually completely blocks out the
moon actually completely blocks out the Sun it will be totally dark yeah so part
Sun it will be totally dark yeah so part
Sun it will be totally dark yeah so part of the reason you see the stars that’s
of the reason you see the stars that’s
of the reason you see the stars that’s because the Sun is behind the earth and
because the Sun is behind the earth and
because the Sun is behind the earth and so you it’s coming dark nighttime okay
so you it’s coming dark nighttime okay
so you it’s coming dark nighttime okay that’s not you’re not gonna get quite
that’s not you’re not gonna get quite
that’s not you’re not gonna get quite that same effect but I just want to
that same effect but I just want to
that same effect but I just want to remind us where we are we’re here in
remind us where we are we’re here in
remind us where we are we’re here in Terrebonne Oregon hanging out with
Terrebonne Oregon hanging out with
Terrebonne Oregon hanging out with Rupert and Maya here who have won the
Rupert and Maya here who have won the
Rupert and Maya here who have won the nat geo and Airbnb solar eclipse prize
nat geo and Airbnb solar eclipse prize
nat geo and Airbnb solar eclipse prize we’re still very excited about that
we’re still very excited about that
we’re still very excited about that um let me just get some questions from
um let me just get some questions from
um let me just get some questions from online so one of the questions from Gabe
online so one of the questions from Gabe
online so one of the questions from Gabe is why can’t the solar eclipse be seen
is why can’t the solar eclipse be seen
is why can’t the solar eclipse be seen from everywhere that’s a great question
from everywhere that’s a great question
from everywhere that’s a great question and it has to do with the fact that
and it has to do with the fact that
and it has to do with the fact that you’re really standing in the moon’s
you’re really standing in the moon’s
you’re really standing in the moon’s shadow and while the moon it can cast a
shadow and while the moon it can cast a
shadow and while the moon it can cast a shadow on the earth based on its
shadow on the earth based on its
shadow on the earth based on its location from the Sun and what the
location from the Sun and what the
location from the Sun and what the Earth’s location from it’s that shadow
Earth’s location from it’s that shadow
Earth’s location from it’s that shadow size depends on the location so it’s
size depends on the location so it’s
size depends on the location so it’s like when you stand in the shadow of a
like when you stand in the shadow of a
like when you stand in the shadow of a building right like where the Sun is
building right like where the Sun is
building right like where the Sun is determines where that shadow is and so
determines where that shadow is and so
determines where that shadow is and so you don’t get a full coverage there are
you don’t get a full coverage there are
you don’t get a full coverage there are just certain regions based on the actual
just certain regions based on the actual
just certain regions based on the actual orbits and how far they are from one
orbits and how far they are from one
orbits and how far they are from one another that allow you to see them so
another that allow you to see them so
another that allow you to see them so it’s it’s sadly not there for everybody
it’s it’s sadly not there for everybody
it’s it’s sadly not there for everybody but it’s it’s basically sitting in the
but it’s it’s basically sitting in the
but it’s it’s basically sitting in the moon shadow now one thing that is
moon shadow now one thing that is
moon shadow now one thing that is science that I think I mean that was
science that I think I mean that was
science that I think I mean that was science too one thing that’s that’s also
science too one thing that’s that’s also
science too one thing that’s that’s also interesting in terms of science is the
interesting in terms of science is the
interesting in terms of science is the fact that this time like astronomically
fact that this time like astronomically
fact that this time like astronomically speaking is a special time to see the
speaking is a special time to see the
speaking is a special time to see the Eclipse so
Eclipse so
Eclipse so where we’re about the Sun is about 400
where we’re about the Sun is about 400
where we’re about the Sun is about 400 times from the 400 times larger than the
times from the 400 times larger than the
times from the 400 times larger than the moon and the moon is about 400 times
moon and the moon is about 400 times
moon and the moon is about 400 times closer so that’s why the moon right now
closer so that’s why the moon right now
closer so that’s why the moon right now can actually block the Sun such a
can actually block the Sun such a
can actually block the Sun such a coincidence otherwise we couldn’t see we
coincidence otherwise we couldn’t see we
coincidence otherwise we couldn’t see we couldn’t see if you went fifteen
couldn’t see if you went fifteen
couldn’t see if you went fifteen thousand years back in time it wasn’t a
thousand years back in time it wasn’t a
thousand years back in time it wasn’t a total solar eclipse and if you go
total solar eclipse and if you go
total solar eclipse and if you go fifteen thousand years in front forward
fifteen thousand years in front forward
fifteen thousand years in front forward in time it wouldn’t be a solar eclipse
in time it wouldn’t be a solar eclipse
in time it wouldn’t be a solar eclipse because the moon is just slightly moving
because the moon is just slightly moving
because the moon is just slightly moving out every year from the earth and so at
out every year from the earth and so at
out every year from the earth and so at some point six hundred million years
some point six hundred million years
some point six hundred million years from now I think it is actually because
from now I think it is actually because
from now I think it is actually because fourteen thousand miles a year we won’t
fourteen thousand miles a year we won’t
fourteen thousand miles a year we won’t even get total eclipses it’s really
even get total eclipses it’s really
even get total eclipses it’s really really really special so let’s get to
really really special so let’s get to
really really special so let’s get to another question I guess this is for you
another question I guess this is for you
another question I guess this is for you and I but back when how old were we the
and I but back when how old were we the
and I but back when how old were we the first time we thought we wanted to be a
first time we thought we wanted to be a
first time we thought we wanted to be a scientist oh I was 13 when I got my
scientist oh I was 13 when I got my
scientist oh I was 13 when I got my first astronomy book and I realized this
first astronomy book and I realized this
first astronomy book and I realized this is my passion I didn’t become a
is my passion I didn’t become a
is my passion I didn’t become a scientist I studied physics and
scientist I studied physics and
scientist I studied physics and continued as a science journalist I
continued as a science journalist I
continued as a science journalist I became a bridge between scientists and
became a bridge between scientists and
became a bridge between scientists and general public yeah yeah so I became a
general public yeah yeah so I became a
general public yeah yeah so I became a bridge to in a different way so I got my
bridge to in a different way so I got my
bridge to in a different way so I got my bachelor’s and master’s degrees in
bachelor’s and master’s degrees in
bachelor’s and master’s degrees in physics
physics
physics I studied astronomy and I do
I studied astronomy and I do
I studied astronomy and I do astrophysics now and I also do stuff
astrophysics now and I also do stuff
astrophysics now and I also do stuff like this cuz I’m really interested in
like this cuz I’m really interested in
like this cuz I’m really interested in talking to y’all about cool things in
talking to y’all about cool things in
talking to y’all about cool things in space black holes next time promise um
space black holes next time promise um
space black holes next time promise um so we’ve got a lot of footage and you
so we’ve got a lot of footage and you
so we’ve got a lot of footage and you know one of the things we talked about
know one of the things we talked about
know one of the things we talked about with science but we also want to talk
with science but we also want to talk
with science but we also want to talk about the work you do and the images you
about the work you do and the images you
about the work you do and the images you do because the other very important
do because the other very important
do because the other very important thing about the solar eclipse is it
thing about the solar eclipse is it
thing about the solar eclipse is it bring folks together so maybe you could
bring folks together so maybe you could
bring folks together so maybe you could walk us through some of the images you
walk us through some of the images you
walk us through some of the images you see you talked about did just a few just
see you talked about did just a few just
see you talked about did just a few just a few from the 13 so why don’t you walk
a few from the 13 so why don’t you walk
a few from the 13 so why don’t you walk us through some of your images
us through some of your images
us through some of your images sure sure I’d like to just answer Rupert
sure sure I’d like to just answer Rupert
sure sure I’d like to just answer Rupert question on the Eclipse unit because you
question on the Eclipse unit because you
question on the Eclipse unit because you you asked a very good question I’m going
you asked a very good question I’m going
you asked a very good question I’m going to show it on one of the pictures later
to show it on one of the pictures later
to show it on one of the pictures later on okay but let’s first start with this
on okay but let’s first start with this
on okay but let’s first start with this one this was the first major Eclipse ISO
yeah it was in 1999 and it’s exactly 18
yeah it was in 1999 and it’s exactly 18 years ago it was in Iran the diamond
years ago it was in Iran the diamond
years ago it was in Iran the diamond ring with the clouds around it yeah so
ring with the clouds around it yeah so
ring with the clouds around it yeah so every 18 years the Eclipse returns
every 18 years the Eclipse returns
every 18 years the Eclipse returns that’s called Sorrows we know it from
that’s called Sorrows we know it from
that’s called Sorrows we know it from Babylonian time 2,500 years ago and this
Babylonian time 2,500 years ago and this
Babylonian time 2,500 years ago and this is the same Eclipse coming now the last
is the same Eclipse coming now the last
is the same Eclipse coming now the last one was in Europe and Iran Middle East
one was in Europe and Iran Middle East
one was in Europe and Iran Middle East but now this one is mainly in the US
but now this one is mainly in the US
but now this one is mainly in the US only in the US the next one could you
only in the US the next one could you
only in the US the next one could you refresh your hair your your screams we
refresh your hair your your screams we
refresh your hair your your screams we could I make sure we get all of that and
could I make sure we get all of that and
could I make sure we get all of that and while we’re doing that let me just
while we’re doing that let me just
while we’re doing that let me just remind y’all that tomorrow will be
remind y’all that tomorrow will be
remind y’all that tomorrow will be having live coverage of the Eclipse from
having live coverage of the Eclipse from
having live coverage of the Eclipse from NatGeo and Airbnb so really want to make
NatGeo and Airbnb so really want to make
NatGeo and Airbnb so really want to make sure you get to see that and while he’s
sure you get to see that and while he’s
sure you get to see that and while he’s doing that lemme answer are you ready
doing that lemme answer are you ready
doing that lemme answer are you ready good no okay let me answer another
good no okay let me answer another
good no okay let me answer another question so a lot of y’all are asking
question so a lot of y’all are asking
question so a lot of y’all are asking about safety we’re definitely gonna have
about safety we’re definitely gonna have
about safety we’re definitely gonna have an extended conversation about safety
an extended conversation about safety
an extended conversation about safety but here’s the view number one do not
but here’s the view number one do not
but here’s the view number one do not look directly at the Sun we’re not gonna
look directly at the Sun we’re not gonna
look directly at the Sun we’re not gonna do that
do that
do that no looking directly at the Sun you need
no looking directly at the Sun you need
no looking directly at the Sun you need to have solar eclipse glasses your
to have solar eclipse glasses your
to have solar eclipse glasses your sunglasses do not count so please don’t
sunglasses do not count so please don’t
sunglasses do not count so please don’t just look at the Sun with your
just look at the Sun with your
just look at the Sun with your sunglasses so what you want to do the
sunglasses so what you want to do the
sunglasses so what you want to do the only moment where it’s okay to actually
only moment where it’s okay to actually
only moment where it’s okay to actually look at the Sun or look at this hope
look at the Sun or look at this hope
look at the Sun or look at this hope totally because it’s during totality and
totally because it’s during totality and
totally because it’s during totality and be very careful in that moment but
be very careful in that moment but
be very careful in that moment but best-case scenario is always wear your
best-case scenario is always wear your
best-case scenario is always wear your solar eclipse classes but back what do
solar eclipse classes but back what do
solar eclipse classes but back what do you got so here is when the Eclipse is
you got so here is when the Eclipse is
you got so here is when the Eclipse is not total but it’s actually a total
not total but it’s actually a total
not total but it’s actually a total eclipse but the moon is not large enough
eclipse but the moon is not large enough
eclipse but the moon is not large enough to to show the corona to cover the
to to show the corona to cover the
to to show the corona to cover the complete Sun that’s called the annular
complete Sun that’s called the annular
complete Sun that’s called the annular eclipse I captured this one in Spain
eclipse I captured this one in Spain
eclipse I captured this one in Spain 2005 the sequence of leaves it’s a
2005 the sequence of leaves it’s a
2005 the sequence of leaves it’s a sequence of seven images right before a
sequence of seven images right before a
sequence of seven images right before a couple of minutes before totality and a
couple of minutes before totality and a
couple of minutes before totality and a couple of minutes after including the
couple of minutes after including the
couple of minutes after including the corona during the meet totally amazing
corona during the meet totally amazing
corona during the meet totally amazing some people are just chasing eclipses
some people are just chasing eclipses
some people are just chasing eclipses much more than me this person on board
much more than me this person on board
much more than me this person on board the cruise ship is just showing all the
the cruise ship is just showing all the
the cruise ship is just showing all the eclipses from 1970s to now that he have
eclipses from 1970s to now that he have
eclipses from 1970s to now that he have changed in all continents
changed in all continents
changed in all continents so the eclipses took me to all
so the eclipses took me to all
so the eclipses took me to all continents two to seven of them but not
continents two to seven of them but not
continents two to seven of them but not all of them were successful okay so this
all of them were successful okay so this
all of them were successful okay so this one in on Antarctica in 2003 shows me
one in on Antarctica in 2003 shows me
one in on Antarctica in 2003 shows me and group of fifty sixty thousand
and group of fifty sixty thousand
and group of fifty sixty thousand penguins so the king penguins are here
penguins so the king penguins are here
penguins so the king penguins are here and it’s a very good question
and it’s a very good question
and it’s a very good question actually that was the most memorable
actually that was the most memorable
actually that was the most memorable part of the trail because I was
part of the trail because I was
part of the trail because I was documenting this for a TV series and I
documenting this for a TV series and I
documenting this for a TV series and I was hoping to show how the Penguins are
was hoping to show how the Penguins are
was hoping to show how the Penguins are reacting they showed zero reaction look
reacting they showed zero reaction look
reacting they showed zero reaction look during totality they were the only one
during totality they were the only one
during totality they were the only one with zero reaction that is so fun the
with zero reaction that is so fun the
with zero reaction that is so fun the Eclipse has also took me to Central
Eclipse has also took me to Central
Eclipse has also took me to Central American Amazonia this is with a group
American Amazonia this is with a group
American Amazonia this is with a group of people in Panama and we were trying
of people in Panama and we were trying
of people in Panama and we were trying to tell them what is going to happen in
to tell them what is going to happen in
to tell them what is going to happen in the next couple of days with the Eclipse
the next couple of days with the Eclipse
the next couple of days with the Eclipse coming this one was in the middle of the
coming this one was in the middle of the
coming this one was in the middle of the Pacific Ocean
Pacific Ocean
Pacific Ocean that was the longest total solar eclipse
that was the longest total solar eclipse
that was the longest total solar eclipse in 21st century we saw it for six
in 21st century we saw it for six
in 21st century we saw it for six minutes 14 seconds it was long enough to
minutes 14 seconds it was long enough to
minutes 14 seconds it was long enough to read a newspaper article the same moment
read a newspaper article the same moment
read a newspaper article the same moment with a telescope on board the ship and
with a telescope on board the ship and
with a telescope on board the ship and then in 2013 13 I went to northern Kenya
then in 2013 13 I went to northern Kenya
then in 2013 13 I went to northern Kenya three days on a very rough road to Lake
three days on a very rough road to Lake
three days on a very rough road to Lake Turkana on northern side which is also
Turkana on northern side which is also
Turkana on northern side which is also known as the Cradle of Humankind yeah
known as the Cradle of Humankind yeah
known as the Cradle of Humankind yeah but unfortunately just half an hour
but unfortunately just half an hour
but unfortunately just half an hour before eclipse we had a sandstorm
before eclipse we had a sandstorm
before eclipse we had a sandstorm it was completely clear sky I don’t know
it was completely clear sky I don’t know
it was completely clear sky I don’t know the southern sandstorm so that was the
the southern sandstorm so that was the
the southern sandstorm so that was the only thing I saw a little bit of partial
only thing I saw a little bit of partial
only thing I saw a little bit of partial eclipse that’s it
eclipse that’s it
eclipse that’s it well let me ask you this that seems sad
well let me ask you this that seems sad
well let me ask you this that seems sad we will get above the clouds this time
we will get above the clouds this time
we will get above the clouds this time yes um but back let me ask you this
yes um but back let me ask you this
yes um but back let me ask you this question and it’s gonna be our sort of
question and it’s gonna be our sort of
question and it’s gonna be our sort of last little segment before I will have
last little segment before I will have
last little segment before I will have to say go back but one of the questions
to say go back but one of the questions
to say go back but one of the questions is it just you’ve seen so many do you
is it just you’ve seen so many do you
is it just you’ve seen so many do you feel like they’ve changed you and maybe
feel like they’ve changed you and maybe
feel like they’ve changed you and maybe you could talk specifically about
you could talk specifically about
you could talk specifically about how they have functioned to bring people
how they have functioned to bring people
how they have functioned to bring people together in your journeys oh yes
together in your journeys oh yes
together in your journeys oh yes definitely first they have changed me
definitely first they have changed me
definitely first they have changed me because every time you see it as I said
because every time you see it as I said
because every time you see it as I said something very deep inside you react
something very deep inside you react
something very deep inside you react yeah and you feel you have received so
yeah and you feel you have received so
yeah and you feel you have received so much positive energy from the Eclipse
much positive energy from the Eclipse
much positive energy from the Eclipse that you are energized for the next few
that you are energized for the next few
that you are energized for the next few years so it’s good to see an eclipse
years so it’s good to see an eclipse
years so it’s good to see an eclipse every now under things that you think of
every now under things that you think of
every now under things that you think of yourself as somebody who can control all
yourself as somebody who can control all
yourself as somebody who can control all your emotions but forget about that
your emotions but forget about that
your emotions but forget about that during the Eclipse I have seen during my
during the Eclipse I have seen during my
during the Eclipse I have seen during my last Eclipse in Indonesia my hand was
last Eclipse in Indonesia my hand was
last Eclipse in Indonesia my hand was shaking after eleven eclipses on my
shaking after eleven eclipses on my
shaking after eleven eclipses on my twelve my hand was shaking I couldn’t
twelve my hand was shaking I couldn’t
twelve my hand was shaking I couldn’t hold the camera yeah during the talk I
hold the camera yeah during the talk I
hold the camera yeah during the talk I decided to do hand-held photography I
decided to do hand-held photography I
decided to do hand-held photography I don’t recommend this is such an
don’t recommend this is such an
don’t recommend this is such an emotional experience well today cameras
emotional experience well today cameras
emotional experience well today cameras are sensitive enough to capture the
are sensitive enough to capture the
are sensitive enough to capture the image handheld during totality back to
image handheld during totality back to
image handheld during totality back to your question it’s as bright as the full
your question it’s as bright as the full
your question it’s as bright as the full moon even a slightly brighter because
moon even a slightly brighter because
moon even a slightly brighter because the corona of the Sun is brighter than
the corona of the Sun is brighter than
the corona of the Sun is brighter than the full moon so you only see a few
the full moon so you only see a few
the full moon so you only see a few stars like a deep Twilight so it’s
stars like a deep Twilight so it’s
stars like a deep Twilight so it’s possible to do hand lit handheld
possible to do hand lit handheld
possible to do hand lit handheld photography but I recommend you use a
photography but I recommend you use a
photography but I recommend you use a tripod for sure one of the things I do
tripod for sure one of the things I do
tripod for sure one of the things I do want to make sure we get the fifty yeah
want to make sure we get the fifty yeah
want to make sure we get the fifty yeah I was telling you before about using
I was telling you before about using
I was telling you before about using solar eclipse classes it’s something you
solar eclipse classes it’s something you
solar eclipse classes it’s something you want to make sure you have we’ve got
want to make sure you have we’ve got
want to make sure you have we’ve got them covered y’all are good totally

them covered y’all are good totally solid covered but you want to make sure
solid covered but you want to make sure
solid covered but you want to make sure you have something for safety nothing
you have something for safety nothing
you have something for safety nothing other than approved total solar eclipse
other than approved total solar eclipse
other than approved total solar eclipse classes will work the one thing that I
classes will work the one thing that I
classes will work the one thing that I want to make sure we get you though
