Best eclipse is when yo mama comes on top and blocks the sun
@Lobed-Homunculus Says:
Pluto and the Moon do have very thin atmospheres. Eris also might have one.
@Leblribrbrrq Says:
Ridiculous how far away Pluto is that the sun just looks like any star.
A solar eclipse on Pluto is just like any star eclipsed by our moon here on Earth.

Since jupiter and saturn have no surface, could I see their solar eclipses by standing on one of their moons? If not, what surface could i be standing on to see them?
@JSV1253 Says:
within a few million years mars is gonna start having total solar eclipses because phobos is gonna get so close to mars that it can fully cover the sun

@TJusnow Says:
Pluto has a seasonal atmosphere.
@RehaanMohammad-n5o Says:
People take Lunar eclipses for granted. There was one last March in the americas and no one gave a shit for the full lunar eclipse, while everyone else was shitting there pants last year about a partial solar (in my area it was partial) eclipse where the sky was too cloudy to even see anything. And besides, who wouldn’t want to see the moon turn blood red?

No entendí 😢
@EbonAvatar Says:
Eclipses might not always be spectacular from Jupiter, but the sight of Jupiter itself from any of its closer moons must be truly awe-inspiring
@chiron9948 Says:
You totally missed Titan: It has the biggest eclipse on Saturn, and is visible from Earth with a telescope, and happens only ever 14 years for serval times on the northern and several times on the southern hemisphere, and vv. Plus from Earth, during every series practically donly from one part form Earth!
@DimitryRotstein Says:
Actually, Pluto does have an atmosphere. Sure, its pressure is very low, but it's also full of dust particles, which makes it appreciably hazy, so light scattering might be noticeable. It's hard to say what kind of optical effects this might create during the eclipse, if any, but I wouldn't discount a possibility of something interesting just like that.

Why did the thumbnail look like donald trump😭

Praise God!
@Daybreak_System Says:
ah, yes, Pluto's oversized moon, Karen
@Daybreak_System Says:
Pluto has HOW MANY MOONS?
@Daybreak_System Says:
I am sad for Mercury who never sees any eclipse of any kind because nothing is closer to the sun than it, at least the sun and its path through the sky look hella interesting there
@Daybreak_System Says:
Even if Mercury could eclipse the Sun from Venus' point of view, it wouldn't see it because you can't even see the Sun from Venus' surface to begin with

Another solution to the fermi paradox, aliens can't handle our aura
@Tmccreight25Gaming Says:
Earth has the best ones, our moon is the perfect size and distance to allow us to see the usually invisible corona.
@Behappy-r4z Says:
You can have haumea it might have small irregular moons but it might be to large to block the sun
@Antoine-oh1fy Says:
Pluto does have an atmosphere though! At least enough of one to have light refract in it
@NATESOR Says:
Pluto does have a very thin atmosphere. About 1/100,000 the pressure of the Earth's but it's enough that it showed up when backlit after the new horizons visit. I wonder if this would be enough to create the 360 degree sunset?
@XX-35withtophat Says:
pluto does have a atmosphere, its just hard to see
@BeeFlavouredCar Says:
3:12 actually Saturn has 130 new discovered moons making 274
@kokolorenz Says:
Sorry, but you obviously have no idea about the other eclipses in this solar system. I've tried them all and they a pretty boring compared to the earth ones. Even all my extraterrestrial friends from around the galaxy say there's nothing comparable anywhere to the earth experience. Just heard that in the andromeda galaxy they have a planet which is kindof similar, but they have a lot of monsters who eat you before the eclipse is over.
@ducstc Says:
4:33 looks like a demon lord eye is watching 🗿
@xpart7953 Says:
Which planet has the best lunar eclipse when 🙏
@marviv3180 Says:
Funny thing is how Earth makes a perfect shade of the moon, feels abit unlikley? By my logic if Earth was bigger we wouldnt even have halfmoons even..

@EthAstrophotography Says:
What if for Venus and mercury a big comet or asteroid covers the sun
@aljawisa Says:
Ouranos
@glint3924 Says:
But Pluto does have an atmosphere, just very thin and distended.
@abcabcabc11-i9j Says:
4:28 why does this look like Donald Trump
@HayoonYoo-c9u Says:
no lcs comments?
@Panguythingycreature Says:
how dare you dont call Pluto a planet
@Veptis Says:
you don't need to be on a planet to see an eclipse. how about being on a moon or on an astroids?
@DragonKnov Says:
The best eclipses in the solar system depend on what you define as "best"—do you mean the most visually stunning, scientifically interesting, or frequent and predictable? Here are a few contenders:
### **1. Earth – The Most Stunning Total Solar Eclipses**
- **Perfect Size Match:** Earth's Moon is almost exactly the right size and distance to cover the Sun perfectly during a total solar eclipse. This creates breathtaking "diamond ring" and "corona" effects.
- **Predictability:** Because of Earth's stable orbits and well-tracked lunar motion, we can predict eclipses with precision.
- **Unique Visual Phenomena:** The Sun's corona (outer atmosphere) becomes visible, something that doesn't happen in most other solar system eclipses.
### **2. Jupiter – The Most Frequent Eclipses**
- **Multiple Moons, Multiple Eclipses:** Jupiter has four large moons (Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto) that frequently cast shadows on the planet.
- **Multi-Moon Shadows:** Sometimes, *multiple* moons cast shadows on Jupiter at the same time, creating dramatic multi-eclipse events.
- **Galilean Moons’ Eclipses:** If you were standing on one of Jupiter’s moons, you’d see spectacular eclipses of the Sun by other moons.
### **3. Saturn – The Best Ringed Eclipses**
- **Ring Shadows:** Saturn experiences eclipses, but what makes them special is that its rings interact with the Sun’s light, creating unique shadow patterns.
- **Titan’s Eclipses:** The massive moon Titan can eclipse the Sun, but since it has a thick atmosphere, it creates eerie light-scattering effects.
### **4. Pluto – The Longest Eclipses**
- **Eclipses with Charon:** Pluto and its moon Charon are locked in a unique orbital dance. When they eclipse each other, it can last for hours because of their slow orbits.
### **5. Mars – Phobos' Fast and Frequent Eclipses**
- **Tiny, Rapid Eclipses:** Mars' moon Phobos is too small to create a total eclipse, but it frequently zips across the Sun in a matter of seconds, creating a mini "transit" eclipse.
- **Deimos' Eclipses:** The smaller moon, Deimos, also occasionally eclipses the Sun but in a more subtle way.
### **Which One is the Best?**
- **If you're looking for the most dramatic, Earth wins.**
- **If you want the most frequent eclipses, go to Jupiter.**
- **If you want eerie effects with rings, Saturn is your best bet.**
- **If you like long, slow-motion eclipses, Pluto and Charon are unmatched.**
Would you rather see a brief but stunning total eclipse, or a slow, eerie, multi-moon shadow play? 🚀

4:36 that would scare me
@itzmedb8290 Says:
Nahhh the thumbnail got the Trump Eclipse 😭
He’s come to make an announcement
@Arwintran0218 Says:
3:36💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
@44Hd22 Says:
I feel like non spherical moons could habe interesting effects like a sunrise in some direction and if the moon spins in a cool way, it could be an amplified effect.
7:04 actually you could see stars around eclipse which could look nice.

wheres ida
@Trickedthetrain-x5o Says:
There will be a solar eclipse on march 29 2025
@nugboy420 Says:
4:29 Mr. President?
@RobloxianX Says:
its crazy that our moon is the perfect size and distance away from earth to perfectly line up with the sun in a solar eclipse
