Even the ancients believed an eclipse was a truly special event.

the ancients also thought that people were made of corn

the ancients also drank mercury because they thought it gave them super powers. They were dumb as shit.

It's special in the sense that it doesn't happen often.

That's it.

HOW CAN OP RECOVER?

Yay eclipses!
Vast amounts of material moving at extreme velocities, lined up only so rarely!

WHY IS NOTHING HAPPENNG


US SAID IT WOULD BE HAPPENING

The ancient couldn't even predict their own fucking end, how could they predict ours

>>19472920
the ancients made sex

>>19472922
"Hence it is clear that our Mercury is not common mercury; for all common mercury is a male that is corporal, specific, and dead, while our Mercury is spiritual, female, living, and life-giving. Attend closely to what I say about our Mercury, which is the salt of the wise men."

Should have read the fine print.

Fast forward to modern day corn subsidies and the ancients were spot on.

Thanks for this post OP, it really made me think

>>19472892
what do flat earthers say about this is this CGI?

>>19473734
i saw a livestream where a flat-earther dude said "that can't be the moon because that's black and the earth is white". dunno how that supports the earth being flat though.

>>19472892
Annnnd its fucking nothing

Can't look at the sun without glasses made by modern technology.

>ancients couldn't see an eclipse

>>19472920

>>19473953
You can see the shadows dummy

Of course they did, numbskull.

Day and night at the same time

>>19473953
you can look at a total eclipse though, which would be impossible for ancient people not to notice

>>19473995
Proof

>>19472892
So what? We've made significant breakthroughs in science since then. What would you think was happening if one day the sun became dark? You'd think the world was ending. But we know better now. Yet you still dwell on a mentality that mankind has moved past. Even the Greeks knew what was up with eclipses. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antikythera_mechanism
Your thread is bad and you should spend your time learning basic science instead of nonsense.
