Not Quite a Total Blackout
Let's get one thing straight: LA didn't experience a total eclipse. We're talking about a partial eclipse here, which is like ordering a pizza and only getting three slices. Still pretty good, but not quite the whole pie. But hey, beggars can't be choosers, right? And let’s be honest, even a partial eclipse is enough to make anyone feel like they're in a sci-fi movie.
QuickTip: A careful read saves time later.
How Much of the Sun Disappeared?
Alright, let's get down to brass tacks. The moon decided to take a big ol' bite out of the sun, covering about 57% of its diameter. That might not sound like a lot, but trust us, it was noticeable. It was like someone put a giant cookie cutter over the sun and said, "Hold my beer."
Tip: Skim once, study twice.
Eclipse Chasers or Eclipse Casuals?
Now, if you're one of those hardcore eclipse chasers who travels the world for these events, we salute you. You're the real MVPs. But if you're like most of us, you probably just looked up at the sky and thought, "Hey, that's kinda cool." And that's totally okay too!
QuickTip: Let each idea sink in before moving on.

Protect Your Peepers!
Before we wrap up, let's talk about something important: eye safety. Looking directly at the sun, even during a partial eclipse, can damage your eyes. So, unless you want to explain to your doctor why you're suddenly colorblind, make sure to use proper eclipse glasses. Trust us, your future self will thank you.
