00:16All right, Totality is almost there. The Slither is about to disappear.
00:22OK, wow. Totality has hit Spain. Oh, my goodness. Lovely. What is it? What is the red mark that we're
00:33seeing on the image right now?
00:35So the red mark is that filament. So it's a bunch of very hot material that has been hanging above
00:41the sun and just kind of hanging out there based on the magnetic fields of the sun that that keeps
00:47it kind of in a little magnetic cage.

00:55out of us.

01:40I don't know.
