Spectacular, Talk about a big mofo of a balloon...
The moon as seen from the Arctic Circle, between Russia and Canada.It only lasts a few seconds, but it's worth seeing. It's a spectacular sight — and in real time! Imagine that you are in a place between Canada and Russia and that, suddenly and for just 30 seconds, the moon appears in all its splendor and disappears before your eyes. Looks like the moon is going to collide with the earth. But even more impressive, and for just 5 seconds, a total eclipse of the sun takes place. It's spectacular! The video was shot in real time.This phenomenon happens at the perigee point of the moon's orbit around the Earth, where the proximity of the Moon is so evident that, suddenly, we realize the great speed at which the Earth is moving.
