here in cleveland during totality was simply incredible. we saw a sunset through the 60 degrees around us where we were plunged into darkness here in downtown cleveland, all around me we had people staring up at the sky and, you know, just to echo what jonathan said earlier, this was a moment where everyone were asked -- what is praising the same thing. across the country. everyone was staring up at the simpson as it was blocked by the moon and it was simply beautiful and mark it was incredible. we saw the corona of the sun and the prominence here in cleveland and this amazing solar flare the prominence on the southern tip of the sun. it was just amazing to watch, amazing to experience and this is going to be something that i personally will never forget as a journalist and as a person. >> neil: beautiful stuff. now the bad news for you, max. i don't know if you saw your

[laughter] i hope you were also wore glasses the when you were viewing -- >> i can still see the sun --
1:19 pm
i don't know why. >> is an opportunity not for not just to enjoy the spectacular event on earth and view the eclipse. is also an opportunity for scientists to learn about the sun and what they call space whether which is the activity of the sun. so the sun is so right and it's really hard to observe it under normal circum circumstances. but the earth, when the moon eclipse is the son and asked in natural what we call corona graph which blocks out the brightness of the sun. is also used observe the -- and you can see the outer corona of the sun itself and so we can study and measure the activity of the sun and by having a telescope or a probe of satellite -- about the atmosphere to do that which is i assume what they're doing with the rockets you got and even cure review you're above the atmosphere. >> it was fascinating as well is that they were -- lunch at three different times. so 45 minutes before adventuring and 45 minutes after the peak local eclipse.
1:20 pm
was the purpose of that? what is that about? >> those particular rockets were are looking at how the sunlight affects the upper atmosphere. to -- a few hundred miles above earth to see, you know, before, during eclipse and after we see how the atmosphere changes. and that atmosphere is very important for medications for satellite medications, for electric grids. scientist is trying to get some basic scientific information about our atmosphere. you can only weekend during eclipse. >> neil: you guys noticed inside that which makes you astronauts or makes us all after knots but mike tampinod a lot of people millions of miles from the sun and this is that rare opportunity to kind of witness that, you know, calculate that, study that.
1:21 pm
what do we gain from that? >> i think it was a couple we had solar activity that actually affected communications on earth. there were some -- and so when we have that type of activity it's helpful to be able to protect the annoying that's going to happen. and the more they learn about the sun got the better that they can predict those things. also for people up on the space station or a people traveling even further out into away from our planet have the are susceptible to the solar flares and the radiation chemical understanding how it behaves and trying to predict the nature and way it may have been will help us -- help us prepare for them and be able to be ready when they occur. >> it is amazing. no these we've seen a lot of launches period, not only standing whose back and forth to the
1:22 pm
iss but, carry, many more were at the space coast, it almost seemed like every other day there's a launch amex or it's busy these days. what you make of it? >> it isn't busy. the space industry has been really exploding mx space x. specific has been launching just a ton of rockets. a lot of them off -- they got a lot of thousands of satellite so that means there's a lot of launches happening in magnets and a few other companies. blue origin, rocket labs. there's a lot. but it's a great time for the american space industry. america has been really been dominating used to be a russian dominated industry about five years ago. it's been good news for that -- and elon musk and on. but i was noticing when you
1:23 pm
add china and what it's doing on the moon and setting up the space station on the moon, spend a lot of time on the far side of the moon, but we don't get many details about that. i don't mean to use this the other chance to raise eyebrows and worries but it's al qaeda not participating in all the fun and some are worried about that. >> is unfortunate i think it would be great to have all the countries of the world cooperates and i think even for countries that may not always get along and straighten matters and you can usually agree on scientific and exploration i would hope that we will be able to cooperate with other countries around the world back right now that's not happening but certainly i think also there is a little bit to be said about competition may be allow competition will help us get there alone quicker. >> neil: that will put. an indication of -- it help to have sort of, like, an enemy that that's obvious --
1:24 pm
we want to beat them to the moon and that was the focus and the challenge. we kind of loss that at the end back of their full program, the program -- apollo 17 cutting down -- never quite the same but is changing now. how you see it now? >> that's true, competition like mike said is a greatly. without the red sox -- nowadays without the -- competition is a good thing. i think in the future hopefully we can wor together. there are some things on earth are more important than working in the space but mike and i both were in the for a time where we had some great cooperation. we've got the international space station as a model of how we can do things, we just need to make sure that governments behave better on earth because that is where most people live. but the corporation was my theory part of being a national to be honest. >> neil: that's interesting because that is in our dna to

1:41 pm
you want to put it. so trump does need money but he needs -- all he needs to do is close that gap a little of it and, you know, if you're looking at the numbers now if you're looking at this weekend, up -- anecdote and indicator, he's probably going to get enough money to be competitive form of money standpoint vertically from large donors. what i understand is except for a handful of holdouts and we can go through that handful in a few minutes, you know, a lot of people are coming back to him. there looking at trump-biden and, you know, as far left as biden has gone, you know, has really turned off a lot of, you know, people that let believe in free markets so if you have reservations about donald trump's divisiveness and january 6 and takes, if you're a big gop magnolia thinking, you know, should i be worried about president kamala harris, should i be worried about turning the white house again for another four years over to the far

left of the party which joe biden has done in the previous four years. anything that could really help donald trump marginally. know there are holdouts and, you know, we were talking about this today on foxbusiness, neil, can bring the big gop megan owner, pulled out right. steve schwartzman another big mega donor and someone who is close to trump still holding out. is the ceo of blackstone. merrian yellowstone who her husband was a huge donor to trump, they were actually all pretty close at one point, you know, somehow got turned off by donald from and she was supporting the centers and i think at least haley at the end back. so those are three mega donors that my guess is donald trump is going to try to back in to the folds as a matter of fact i heard there is open to medications all this other stuff. will see if they come out my come back but if they can get -- he will have -- i think he was -- at least the people i speak to think he will be okay in the money side. remember, neil, there was a story we did on your show in

2016. every time the guy opens his mouth, he creates a media by. every time he put something on through social, you know, people tuning. the guy that have a sort of an array of talents that mere mortals don't on the sort of publicity side. so again he doesn't need it as much as biden. he will be out and about and biden won't be. to put that together, that's what i'm hearing from the gop faithful. back to you. >> neil: a lot of folks are focusing -- she and her husband close to $100 million to the trump campaign in the last moron. she had held up for the time being. we know why. >> well she supported haley and desantis and my guess is -- you know, we once interviewed sheldon. since he's fast i guess i can talk about this. my one of all producers interviewed children and we did a story on it for foxbusiness that quoted him
1:44 pm
