"Eclipse Across America: From Space to Earth, How Totality Transformed Solar Viewing"
TL;DR Summary
Thousands of people across the country gathered to witness the total solar eclipse, experiencing intense emotions as temperatures dropped and the sky darkened. A weather balloon launched in Ontario captured stunning images of the eclipse before landing in New Hampshire. Parrots are being tested for their problem-solving skills, while new research suggests that Ötzi the Iceman's tattoos may have been an ancient form of healing. Antarctica's melting ice due to global warming is causing meteorites to sink, and recent archaeological discoveries include a banquet hall in Pompeii and petroglyphs near dinosaur footprints in Brazil.
