AMERICA COMES TOGETHER

Submitted by ub on

The name Monday Day of the Mon lived up to its namesake as Americans from Mazatlán to Maine came together for totality.

According to published reports, totality reached North America at 2:07 p.m., when the silhouette of the moon ate into the yellow orb of the sun. As the silvery glow of the corona materialized, the temperature dropped and D.J.’s stopped blaring music. A sense of hushed calm ensued as people captured the event with their phones.

The solar eclipse offered music fans the chance to sync the climax of Pink Floyd's 1973 masterpiece The Dark Side of the Moon with a rare celestial event.

Today the moon completely covered the sun for up to four and a half minutes along a path of totality that covers 15 states from Texas to Maine.

If you timed it correctly, you could listen to Dark Side's closing line - "And everything under the sun is in tune, but the sun is eclipsed by the moon" - just as this spectacular display occurs above you.
