The most rare, top-tier eclipse photo would be the Solar Earth Eclipse, but the Apollo 12 crew’s attempt to capture it was marred by camera shake. They said it looked spectacular, though.

    My original plans were to travel to Niagara Falls. That seemed like the coolest place there would be totality at.

    I am so glad I (due to circumstances I neither thought nor hoped would happen) am typing this message from Mexico City Airport instead while waiting for boarding to start for my flight back to Europe. It was perfectly sunny where I watched it.

      Glad you got a good view! Now that I’ve experienced it with limited view but a really cool darkness, I’m ready to prep for a trip I hope gives a much better view in a few years!
