Former 10th group here. Hooah was strictly forbidden with us. You would probably get kicked out of the regiment if you said it unironically.

I've dropped the 82nd at Bragg a few times. That plane would never be in position for a shot like this. Nice ps though.

This was actually the 5HOP division based out of fort Photo

When you want up votes so bad you have to Photoshop a picture from a year ago and claim it was today

Can we get a confirmation?

8 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 1

Well considering that 82nd jumps the T-11 parachute and not an MC-6 (as shown in the picture) I doubt this is them. But I do know 82nd 1/2

One point for the Saturn five. Thats a real photo back before the internet.

The paratroopers didn't really jump during the eclipse. He photoshopped photos he got from the internet. Read above link

I'm just being an asshole because I looked at his profile and he's a jarhead. He photoshopped his eclipse picture so I was just being a jerk

OP is a big phony.

The 82nd Airborne posted this on their Twitter without mentioning the photoshop aspect. Not OP's fault.

@OP is responsible for their post. Especially since @OP did not credit the source of the post.

I'm stationed on fort bragg and I can say the eclipse looked nothing like this today. It just got a bit dimmer outside.

8 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 0

Yep i also watched from fort bragg, definitely didnt look like this

americas a big country parts of it would not get a toatal eclipse

8 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 11

Correct. It was only 75% for us in NJ.

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 3

But this is an annular eclipse, where the moon is farther from the earth making it smaller, todays was a total where the moon is closer.

8 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 1

oh shit yea perhaps its from some older partial eclipse

Tineye found a matching photo as far back as October 29, 2016. Same annular eclipse, but without the 82nd Airborne Photoshop division.

Whether or not the eclipse is total is entirely a matter of perspective

8 years ago | Likes 36 Dislikes 29

Eclipses generally are a matter of perspective if you think about it

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 2

Annular vs. Total doesn't depend on where you are, unless it's a hybrid eclipse and you move along the path of maximum eclipse.

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

If it matters you're totally right from my perspective.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 7

Whoop de doo. Do you know what annular eclipses are?

8 years ago | Likes 22 Dislikes 7

I don't, can you tell me? :-)

8 years ago | Likes 8 Dislikes 0

"An annular eclipse occurs when the Sun and Moon are exactly in line with the Earth, but the apparent size of the Moon is smaller 1/2

8 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 0

than that of the Sun. Hence the Sun appears as a very bright ring, or annulus, surrounding the dark disk of the Moon." 2/2

8 years ago | Likes 8 Dislikes 0

A matter of perspective. You are just further from the moon when it eclipses the sun.

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 3

Really, downvotes? What the hell you think an annular eclipse is? The moon shrinking?

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 1

Eclipses in your annual, duh. My gf loves annual.

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 1

I didn't. I looked it up and now I know more about eclipses. Thank you.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Sure it is, but it just so happens that every humans perspective of this eclipse is from Earth, and therefore should be the same.

8 years ago | Likes 8 Dislikes 4

Are you fucking retarded

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 4

Look up the difference between a total (todays) and an annular (captured in this picture) eclipse, before throwing around "fucking retard".

8 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 1

.........you do know there was only a narrow stretch across the continent where the sun was completely covered, right?

8 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 5

Yes, I am aware of that. And do you think this picture could have been captured from outside that narrow stretch? Because it could not.

8 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 3

Outside that strip is partial eclipse, not annular.

8 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

Yes, I know that. I'm refuting the "every humans perspective of this eclipse is from Earth, and therefore should be the same." claim. >
