14 Stories About Eclipses That Will Both Brighten And Darken Your Day! – A Not Always Right Story Roundup!
Dear readers,
If you’re reading this from certain parts of North America, then today is Eclipse Day! If you get a chance to get outside to see it then you should, as it’ll be the last one in your area until 2044! However, not everyone understands these magnificent quirks of celestial alignment in totality (see what we did there?) and so because entitled customers and the like are prone to ruining good times for everyone else, we’ve rounded up fourteen stories from the Not Always Right archives about eclipses! Some of them might darken your day, but at least one of them is guaranteed to brighten it, so double-check the time of the eclipse for your area, make sure it’s not soon, and settle in to enjoy some eclipsing stories!
