Three minutes and thirty three seconds of totality - an amazing experience! Here are three shots from beginning and end of totality. Will post more tomorrow.

@Parag Your photos are great. To me it looks almost like science fiction, although science fact. We need more space emojis btw, like an eclopse.

@stupendousman @pratik It was amazing! The solar flares were huge and so bright. They were visible to naked eye during totality. Didn't see that last time in 2017.

@stupendousman @pratik Have to make a correction here as I learned something new. What is seen here is called a prominence which is plasma shot out from the surface of the Sun. It eventually gets out in the space and some of it can crash into Earth. Solar flares are electromagnetic in nature and not physical explosions. I think both can cause disruptions in communications and better auroras. I used to use these two terms interchangeably but that is not correct.

@Parag Thanks. I think @pratik also called them out as prominences. Good to know what they mean in context.
