Total Eclipse Memes

A total eclipse is a striking astronomical event where the moon positions itself directly between the Earth and the sun, completely obscuring the sun from view. For a brief period, daylight gives way to an unexpected darkness, temperatures can noticeably drop, and the surroundings take on a surreal appearance.
