Hagar (the horrible) are you for real? bert
You wondered if there were mountains on the Moon interfereing or
distorting
the view during a Solar Eclipse. I explained it to you. Which part
didn't
you understand ??
"Interestingly, the silhouette of the Moon is not a perfect circle, but
rather it is slightly prickly with mountains, which are relatively much
higher than those on Earth.
So just before the transition from annular to total and later, just
after the transition from total back to annular, the eclipse will
become something neither annular nor total: it will be a broken
annular. As lunar mountains protrude onto the hairline-thin ring of the
Sun, it will be seen not as an unbroken ring but an irregular,
changing, sparkling sequence of arcs, beads and diamonds very briefly
encircling the Moon: a "diamond necklace" effect! This is a spectacle
that viewers in the Panama and possibly Costa Rica might see."

Double Anus, so much for the Moon's mountains that all you nuts proclaim to
see:

Can't admit you were wrong without insulting, huh?
Admit it, Bert was right, and you were wrong!
