What are Bailey's beads and the diamond ring effect?
—Bailey's beads are flashes of light seen on the outer edge of the moon during a solar eclipse. The diamond ring effect occurs right before totality when a small sliver of the sun resembles a bright diamond ring.
What causes the sky to grow darker during totality?
—During totality, the moon completely blocks the sun, causing a significant decrease in the amount of visible light.
Why is seeing the corona of the sun during totality rare?
—The corona of the sun is the outer atmosphere that is normally hidden by the brightness of the sun. It can only be seen during a total solar eclipse.
What other celestial bodies were visible during the eclipse?
—Venus and Jupiter were visible in the darkened sky during the eclipse.
What is the duration of totality?
—In Cleveland, totality lasted approximately three minutes and 50 seconds.
