Click on the links at left to open a window to Google Video.
The streaming video (which requires a broadband internet link)
will begin running after a short pause,
but may look blocky. In that
case, try clicking on the up/down-arrow icon at the lower right of the
video screen and set the size to "Original Size".
For larger size and higher quality, click
on the "Download" button in the Google Video window to download
the video file to your hard disk (size is ~23 MB).
If you do not have the Google
video viewer on your system, you will be prompted to download it first.
Be sure to have your system sound turned on when viewing the video!

Notes:
- The "ground" video was left on a fixed exposure setting
for the duration of the entire video sequence
to show how dark it becomes at totality.
- The sun is not visible in the "ground" video field of view. It was very high in the sky (about 70° up).
- The filter on the "solar" video camera is removed
2 minutes into the video.
- The "solar" video is set for autoexposure until just
after totality (~3:10 into the video) when it is set to
a fixed exposure that shows the prominences and innermost part of the corona until after third contact.
- The bright object at the right edge of the screen in the
"ground" video is the monitor screen of the "solar" video camera.
