So it's interesting... seems like you may get a more "accurate" (for lack of a better word) view by reversing the images east/west. You have it representing the earth's rotation, with the moon setting in the west. But, the eclipse is happening as the moon moves west to east into the earth's shadow. So if you reversed the flow of the moon images, you'd get a more accurate portrayal of what was going on with the eclipse.

All that aside, that's a great pic. Awesome work.

Did you seriously just copy and paste that and pawn it off as your own thinking?

Edit: wow, so much butt hurt from all y'all.

Edit 2: I don’t understand why you all think I care what you think. I don’t. Just downvote me and move on to something worthy of your time. Everything is fine. We’re all gonna be fine.

Very cool shot. I was confused by the title, so did some research.

Is baobab and boab the same?

The common name 'boab' might reasonably be assumed to be of Aboriginal origin, but it's actually a corruption of 'baobab', an Arabic word of African origin that means 'father of many seeds'.

It's a clue to the tree's evolutionary associations because the boab and baobabs belong to the same genus.
