Not super bright, but the fact I was able to see the aurora above NYC is incredible!

Sometimes observing is fun and exciting, especially as you watch new data come in!

Sometimes observing is waiting around for hours hoping the fog will clear. Tonight is one of those nights...

Cool optical illusions on the horizon today!

What an incredible experience! We got lucky with the clouds, which held off just enough for totality.

Just going to ignore the Forcast and pretend the weather in Austin will stay like this until Monday...

Are you curious about the eclipses for the next twenty years? Afraid of the weather reports for this one? Look no further than this @AMNH video made in collaboration with @least_evens @DesirDeion @OpenSpaceProj and me. Total solar eclipses through 2043. https://t.co/3NY9EupaFA
