This was about 8 years ago. I was driving home from work with my sister (we worked together) and it was night time, the moon was out probably nearing full, it was really big. I’m in the passengers seat, admiring it when I see a black stripe appear at the top and I immediately point it out to her. It’s actually so startling that we pull over in a parking lot and watch it. We live in Illinois, very flat land, nothing could even create an illusion like this. No powerlines. Nothing could make it make sense. The black stripe grew larger and moved down the moon until it completely covered it and then it shrunk and moved away. If I knew how to create and post an animation of it I would. We were in such shock we didn’t even think to take out phones, it all happened in maybe 10 minutes. Gives me chills to think about….
