Solar Eclipse................

Question

I understand its showing live I have the website and I hear people talking but it looks fake . Is the image real its like a red ball..???

Answer 1

Yes, it is real.  It looks red because the Sunlight is being heavily filtered, otherwise the glare would make it almost impossible to see.

I hope you were able to see it when it reached totality.  The clouds cleared just in time :)

Answer 2

It is on the NASA website so id say its real. It is normal for the sun to look slightly red during a solar eclipse but part of it may be to do with the camera filming it.
