Everyone wants to be a part of history, right? Well just think you attend an Ozzy concert during a solar eclipse and it went horribly wrong. There you are standing in a giant crowd jamming with Ozzy, as he stops in mid song to point out that the eclipse is starting. All of a sudden there is a big booming sound, the moon actually collided with the sun. Now the world is dark, except for the countless shards of sun and moon falling to earth. What do you do? Waiting in line for what seems like an eternity just to see Ozzy perform during a historic event. Remembering as soon as the tickets went on sale you bought one for you and your best friend. Finally, when they opened the gates you try to beat the crowd to get the best seats. The heat is unbelievable, but it doesn't …show more content…

Everyone is yelling, cheering, and singing along with him. Everything is going as planned. Everyone is enjoying the concert and there is no fighting. Everything in the world seems perfect. As the sky starts to get darker Ozzy finishes his song Crazy Train. He starts talking to the crowd. When he says to the workers "Hey cut the gate let everyone up front!". Everyone in general admission charges up to the V.I.P area. Ozzy adds "Everyone put on your glasses and look at the sky.". It's like we are all robots you see everyone put on glasses and look up as the music for Bark at the Moon starts. But, that’s when tragedy starts. Instead of the moon covering the sun like it was supposed to happen the moon collided with the sun. All you see is fire balls falling from the sky. I run to try to take cover.

    We arrived at the concert around sun set. As we pulled up to the entrance, all I could see was a mass of humans. They scattered around the front of the building, some going in and coming out. In the middle of all the transportation devices there were a few men, in black suits, who pointed in different directions. They stopped groups of humans to allow the transportation devices by and vice versa. We now left our "car" with a group of other "cars" and made our way to the building. As we entered, we were told to form lines. At the end of these lines, we were greeted by a male human who patted each person, head to toe. He took a rectangle piece of material from our hands, and put a different piece of material around my wrist. After this we were ready to enter.

His theory is that this "night" was so horrifying to the people who experienced it, they desperately sought out any light source to try to drive it away: particularly, by frantically starting fires which burned down and destroyed their successive civilizations.” In the final analysis, Nightfall can be considered one of sf’ best, for its ability to masterfully expose real fear, in a

    Cultural Reflection on the Great American Solar Eclipse Before the fall semester began, I enjoyed one of the many benefits of my status as an “Asheville Native”, and attended a presentation by Professor Britt Lundgren on the upcoming solar eclipse. Although she covered a broad scope of content concerning solar eclipses, two aspects of her talk stood out to me in particular. The first aspect was an interesting similarity between ancient Chinese and Cherokee myths about solar eclipses. The ancient Chinese believed that a celestial dragon would swallow the sun on eclipse days, while the Cherokee believed it was a great frog who devoured the star.
