It's the beginning of the end, satans stargate will open and we'll be plagued by demons and zombies until all the yanks get raptured...

Get your solar glasses. Don't look directly at the sun or you will go deaf.

If only I had kept some 5 1/4" disks around - the inside of those made great eclipse-viewing-glasses back in the day.

Best I can do for you is to direct you to this live stream.

Hold your laptop above your head, and pretend you're looking at the actual sun.
