00:00So today, folks, the universe decided to throw us a cosmic prank.
00:05The first solar eclipse of 2026, a full-on ring of fire show.
00:09At exactly 7.01 UTC, the moon slid in front of the sun like it was cutting the line at
00:15Starbucks blocking the center but leaving a shiny donut of light.
00:19Astronomers call it annular eclipse.
00:21But let's be real, it's basically the sun saying, I'm still here, just wearing a hula hoop.
00:27India got prime visibility with people staring at the sky through cardboard glasses that look like props from a low
00:34-budget C-Fi movie.
00:35Religious rituals kicked in because apparently when the moon photobombs the sun, you're supposed to fast, pray, and avoid cooking.
00:42Basically, it's the universe's way of saying, no brunch for you.
00:46Meanwhile, Instagram went nuclear.
00:49Millions of selfies with captions like hashtag ring of fire because nothing says spiritual awakening like duck lips under cosmic
00:56chaos.
00:57And let's not forget the scientists who were out there measuring light curves while secretly hoping their eclipse photos would
01:04finally beat their cat's engagement numbers.
01:06Spoiler, they didn't.
