8th April Solar Eclipse - for those in US, Canada, Mexico. Go for totality, nothing else matters...

If You live or stay in mentioned countries and plan to watch partial eclipse only, I urge You to try to get to totality zone/path by all means. The greatest mistake people can do about solar eclipses is to think that seeing 80-90% partial phase one can see "almost the same" as in case of totality. Nope! This is actually a separate phenomenon, absolutely different from even deepest partial phase. Really breathtaking at the first time for absolutely every human spectator who could witness it. So this is a binary decision in fact - all vs nothing.
Don't miss the opportunity, maybe a lifetime one! I'm writing this grounded at home this time unfortunately, far, far away... Maybe I manage to inspire some of you in the very last moment... People (including me) travel overseas just to watch this thing - for a good reason.
