I managed to get a few photos of the spectacular event. Imagine! A little, teeny-tiny black dot on the face of the sun! Who'd have believed it?

Nah. You are thinking about the moon. Samples of the cheese brought back from the Apollo program have been circulating in wine & cheese parties for decades now. That is why we are looking at more landings - we are running low... The sun is a mass of incandescent gas...

Patrick, dude. That's quite obviously a traffic light with a dead fly on the glass. I know that you're supposed to avoid looking directly at the sun, but you could at least aim properly first.
