DIRECTION? >> IT'S WONDERFUL, TOO BAD YOU
CAN'T BOTTLE THIS UP AND TAKE IT AWAY.
>> I THINK HE SAYS IT REALLY WELL.
WE HAVE CLOUDS THAT ARE ABSOLUTELY OBSCURING IT.
WHEN YOU PUT THE GLASSES ON. .
I KNOW WE'RE LOOKING AT OUR SPECIAL LENS.
IS THAT A CLOUD? >> MOVE.
>> BOOING. >> LISTEN TO THE BOOING.
WE'RE SO CLOSE TO GETTING TOTALITY.
WE'LL HAVE TWO MINUTES AND 38 SECONDS.
ONE OF THE THINGS THEY SAID WOULD HAPPEN IN TOTALITY, NO
MATTER WHICH WAY YOU LOOKED, YOU WOULD SEE WHAT APPEARED TO BE A
SUNSET. I CAN SAY IN THE 360 DEGREES I
CAN SEE, ABOUT 270 DEGREES I CAN SEE HERE, IT DOES LOOK LIKE
THERE'S A SUNSET ALL OVER. >> KERRY, I'M LOOKING AT YOUR
VIEW INTO THE STADIUM, IT LOOKS LIKE TOTAL NIGHTTIME.
IS IT DARK OUT THERE NOW? >> ARE WE ON INFRARED RIGHT NOW?
NO, NO, NO. LEAVE IT UP.
THAT'S HOW DARK IT IS, WE'VE DONE NOTHING SPECIAL TO THE
LENS. YOU CAN SEE WHAT LOOKS LIKE A
SUNSET OVER THERE, IT'S JUST THAT DARK OVER HERE, AND IT'S
GETTING DARKER AS WE LOOK. OKAY, HERE WE GO.
>> LISTEN TO THE CHEER. I THINK IT SAYS A LOT.
LET'S LISTEN FOR A MOMENT. >> WE SWITCHED OVER TO NIGHT
VISION BECAUSE DAY HAS TURNED TO NIGHT HERE.
I'M GOING TO STEP DOWN OVER HERE, LET'S SEE HERE.
DESCRIBE WHAT YOU SEE. >> MAN, IT'S CRAZY, LIKE, IF
YOU'RE THINKING WITH THE CLOUDS IT WAS GOING TO COVER IT, YOU
WERE ACTUALLY ABLE TO SEE IT, IT'S INCREDIBLE.
>> WE HAD 2:38 WE'RE NOT GOING TO GET THE FULL 2:38 BECAUSE OF
THE CLOUD. NOW WE'RE HOPING TO SEE THE
CLOUD MOVE. AT THIS LITTLE MOMENT THAT
YOU'RE SHARING WITH THE REST OF THE NATION.
WHAT DO YOU FEEL IN YOUR HEART? >> IT'S INCREDIBLE ACTUALLY, TO
BE HERE AMONG ALL THESE PEOPLE, FOR EVERYBODY TO COME TOGETHER
TO SEE THIS, I THINK IT'S INCREDIBLE.
>> I SPOKE TO A GENTLEMAN OVER HERE WHO TOLD ME, IN A DIVIDED
NATION, HE'D LIKE TO BOTTLE THIS MOMENT UP AND KEEP IT.
HOW DO YOU FEEL IN A COUNTRY WHERE WE HAVE SO MANY DIVISIONS.
TODAY 15,000 PLUS PEOPLE ARE STANDING HERE, LOOKING UP AND
SHARING A MOMENT TOGETHER. >> I THINK IT SHOWS US HOW
POWERFUL WE CAN BE WHEN WE ALL COME TOGETHER.
EVEN WITH EVERYTHING THAT'S GOING ON.
YOU HAVE ALL DIFFERENT TYPE OF FACES AND PEOPLE OUT HERE THAT
CAME TOGETHER FOR THIS MOMENT, IT IS INCREDIBLE.
>> IT REALLY IS. >> I'M KIND OF GIDDY AND SORT OF
IN AWE OF ALL OF THIS WITH MOTHER NATURE.
>> I DIDN'T KNOW THIS WAS POSSIBLE.
ESPECIALLY IN OUR LIFETIME TO BE ABLE TO SEE SOMETHING LIKE THIS,
IT'S CRAZY, IT'S INCREDIBLE. >> THAT CLOUD LOOKS LIKE IT'S
STILL MOVING ALONG, LESTER, IT'S DARK.
I MEAN, IT IS DARK. INTERESTINGLY.
I DON'T KNOW HOW IT SHOWS UP ON THE INFRARED.
YOU CAN KIND OF SEE OFF IN THE DISTANCE WHAT IS THAT SUNSET IN
VARIOUS DIRECTION ALL THE WAY ALONG ABOUT.
>> DYLAN WAS DESCRIBING THE EFFECT OF THIS IT'S LITERALLY
360 DEGREES. TURN AROUND, EVERYONE'S EXCITED.
AS WE LOOK UP, THERE'S SOME CHEERING.
WE CAN SEE IT THROUGH THE CLOUD. LOOKS LIKE IT'S GOING TO
BREAKTHROUGH. WE'RE HOPING THE CLOUD MOVES
BEFORE THE MOMENT OF TOTALITY IS GONE.
THEY SAID THE LONGEST IN THE COUNTRY WOULD BE RIGHT HERE AT
2:38. WAIT, HERE WE GO.
IT'S NOW -- THERE WE GO. I CAN SEE IT WITH MY NAKED EYE.
IT'S -- IT REALLY IS THAT CORONA.
WOW! >> THAT'S COOL.
>> I GOT TO SAY. I'M A LITTLE BREATHLESS.
THIS IS A GIDDY AND AWESOME MOMENT.
THERE WE GO. OKAY.
THERE WE GO. AND NOW, DAYTIME IS RETURNING.
LET'S TAKE A LOOK BACK UP THERE WITH THE CAMERA.
DAYTIME IS RETURNING, AS YOU LOOK AT THE -- THERE WE GO.
PUT MY GOGGLES ON. THERE WE GO.
SO -- THE MOMENT OF TOTALITY WAS TO BE 2:38 HERE.
I THINK WE GLIMPSED MAYBE ABOUT -- I'LL BE CONFID
