why are these discoveries so exciting? >> with this we've made a giant accelerated leap in terms of life on other worlds because not just with one but several we have room that if we didn't have the habitable zone right or weren't sure what to look for we have many chances over. you can say globally it's like in this planetary system goldilock's has many sisters. we don't know much about the planets. we knows a we heard earlier the masses and sizes and how much radiation is falling on them and their orbits so now we speculate. for that it's captured our imagination and we have a new travel poster from nasa website and it's captured scientifically accurately, how on one of the planets you can see all the other planet ins the sky. now historically xo planets when there's one there's more and that's why i'm so excited to be here to share it with you.exo planets when there's one there's more and that's why i'm so excited to be here to share it with you. there must be many out there waiting to be found. >> thanks so what are as

we are excited. >> the excitement getting bigger. we are at the point of the great eclipse. >> the point of greatest eclipse is actually a point of time when the axis of the moon shadow it to theted most directly center of earth. we are at the surface of earth where that occurs. >> thank you. the shuttle will actually be more circular here then anywhere else on earth, is that right? >> yes. it is incredible. >> we cannot wait to break out into darkness. we have our sunglasses on. see our live telescope view. everyone is really an joining it. enjoying it. we have people here from all over the world. we are just a few minutes away from totality. but before we get into that, tell us. you are a scientist and you specialize in the moon. pretty cool to look up there. you see the sun get him or and dimmer because the -- dimmer and dimmer up there. i like to tell people you are really looking at the moon up there. it is getting cooler. i've seen partial eclipses but have never had a chance to see totality before and i am so excited. >> we're

i've never seen so many people so excited. blackwell should have totality in about five minutes, i believe, four or five minutes. can you just explain, adriana, what's happens just in blackwell. for those of you just joining us, how are we able to witness this. how is it that the moon is able to block out the sun in this way? >> it's an extraordinary moment, really. it's been extraordinary, the moment in which we're views. and occlude -- completely -- you know, the sphere of the sun, we cannot see is anynor. in those precious moments, just before the moon is completely occulting the -- and when we experience the corona, that is not easily visible. it's significant for scientific investigations. >> chris hadfield, what can science learn from seeing the corona like this? it always exists, but to actual think see it is rare. >> you know, in 1859, there was a huge explosion on the sun, we call the it the carrington event. it was in that corona, we call it a coronal mass ejection, and a huge blob of energy came from the sun and env

and now we can see what happens. >> how excited are you and why are americans excited?. >> people are generally a f -- excited about science. look on social media. this is something that is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. so now this is coming in the last one was 38 years ago. so it is a mixture of this is cool but when they realized things they could formally at never get to see our exciting. >> people say i want to go to the grand canyon but when you see it it is exciting and it is like that. >> what is your favorite part? but things you cannot see a rise cannot see the specific stars during the day in august but i can see them at night. the all the time you can see the program -- corona but what i didn't get - - manchin all 360 degrees around the horizon we have sunset colors down to the ground that is just after sunset colors so i want to see that. >> thank you for your time.

it is a dream come true, and i am super excited. everybody is and i am super excited.es it or is nervous or anxious. they are going to have to figure that out for themselves. we never figure that out for themselves. we never experience figure that out for themselves. we never experience that kind of stuff in women's golf. and we are probably going to go out there and feel a little bit like a rock star or soccer player, and just really soak it all in, and just enjoy that atmosphere. and you know, obviously it is going to be a lot of american fans, and just trying to turn that into a positive and just feed off of that. at greeensboro, in north carolina, matt every leads the wymondham championship, after carding a nine—under—parfirst round of 61. the 33—year—old, twice a winner of the arnold palmer invitational, started his round in the most perfect way, when he holed out on the first for an eagle—two, having struggled over the past two years. the only player in the world's top ten competing here is henrik stenson, who is only one shot behind every. the swede, with this l

>> i think people are genuinely excited. if you look on the social media you can see there are so many jokes. most people never see once and now this is coming in the last one we had in the mainland u.s. was 38 years ago. the last one that went coast-to-coast was kind of a mixture of i might not get to see this again so i think people are excited and when they realize they are seeing things they normally would not get to see a thing that makes them super excited. it's also a little bit like the grand canyon is cool and you see a picture of it but when you do it's kind of like that but it has a volcano in the middle and bus guat the sky and that is whe eclipse is like. >> what is your favorite part of watching the eclipse? >> things you can't see otherwise over the weekend see what we would see during the day in august. the only thing you can see a disturbing and eclipse so it is the only opportunity. the other thing i didn't mention is that he also get all the way around the horizon and we get sunset colors. you see that nor

this is exciting. we have our glasses, we have -- we are excited. make some more noise. [cheering] we are having a ball. there is still a lot more here through the eyes of nasa. we have the international space station coming up, you do not want to miss it.

how excited are you? i am excited. we came out this morning and it was a bright day.un is still shining but it is chillier. it is bright sunshine but it is not quite right. when i looked through my solar eclipse glasses there is just a sliver of sun. the smile on my face is huge. it is incredibly exciting. is it already getting darker? it is. it is funny because it is bright. it is not quite bright enough. it is bright but not quite bright enough because the sun has disappeared and yet it is significantly bright because although there is only six of the sun left, it is still a sunny day. i have my seven—year—old daughter here and she has the cheshire cat smile as well. it is her first solar eclipse so she is very excited. tell us more eclipse so she is very excited. tell us more about getting the view. it isa us more about getting the view. it is a very narrow belt as you get across these ia states where you get this moment of totality? it is. i'm working down in california but over the last week we have been working oui’ the last week we have been working our way to

makes it super exciting. it is also a little bit like -- i want to go to the grand canyon and you see a picture and it is cool, but you want to see it in the flesh. [gasp].u do it is like, it is like that, but it is if the grand canyon is in the sky. >> what is your favorite part of watching the eclipse? angela: the things you can't see otherwise. although we can't see the specific stars we will see during the day in august, i can see them at night in february. i'm not worried about looking to the stars. but looking at the corona, the only time you can see it is a eclipse, -- during an it is the only opportunity. the other thing is, we get all the way around the horizon, sunset colors. it is dark where the sun is and it gets lighter down to the ground and on the ground, it is just after sunset colors. you see that normally driving west after sunset, but now it goes all the way around. i want to see that. >> professor, thank you for your time. >> c-span's coverage of the solar eclipse on monday starts at seven

they have me excited. i will introduce our panelists we have -- social media, send those questions and, #eclipse 2017. i'm excited about the science so let me introduce you. thomas, back again. nice red. i think that means something. administrator at nasa headquarters. angela, and supple investigator of the eclipse ballooning project. coast,ut to the west linda, executive director. director of solar physics in the division of sciences at the national science foundation in arlington, virginia. titles.she has many at theor of astrophysics university of columbia. astronomer, national solar observatory in tucson, arizona. we will facilitate that discussion. >> i'm excited to be a part of this panel because science is such an important part of seeing an eclipse. angela i would like to start with you. we are talking about observing the eclipse from the edge of space. >> the goal of the ballooning project is to connect to a basic human sense of wonder by providing live footage from the edge of space. how does thi

why do you think americans are excited about this? genuinely people are excited. this is something that is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. most people don't get to see more than one of these. in fact, most people never see one. now this one is coming. the last one we had on mainland u.s. was 38 years ago. that was only visible in the northwest. the last one that went coast-to-coast was 99 years ago. oh, that is really cool. i might not get to see this again. i think people are excited. when they realize they're seeing things they never normally get to see, i think that makes it super exciting. i think it is also a little bit like, people are like, oh, i want to go to the grand canyon. you see a picture and it is cool, but you want to see a picture in the flesh. hasimagine the grand canyon an arresting volcano in the middle -- erupting talking on the middle. >> what is your favorite part? >> the things you cannot see otherwise. although we cannot see those specific stars we will see during the day in august, i can see them at night in february. i am worried about

are you excited, jay? >> yes, yes, yes. >> reporter: now, wills eye has extra staff on duty in their emergency, department, just in case people don't take precautions. symptoms of solar retinopathy happen about one to six hours after exposure, and those symptoms include new blurred vision, and seeing spots. reporting live from wills eye hospital, i'm stephanie stahl, cbs-3, "eyewitness news." >> good information, stephanie , thank you. >>> and turning out to the forecast, there is some sunshine out there, little cloudy, too, but katie, with so many eyes to the sky, will the sun fully be out when our partial eclipse begins? what do youy? >> i think definitely stay dry here. we have been expecting couple of patchy clouds have rolled in over center city, many other locations, as welshing for the most part going to stay breitbart. going to see the sun filtered through the clouds, you will have for the most part a pretty clearview about eclipse throughout the afternoon, we check in on storm scan3, which remains

people are excited. they realize they are seeing get to see, ever that makes it super exciting. also like, people want to go to the grand canyon tis cool. ou see a picture and it is cool. you want to see it in the flesh. ahh, you do, it is like, kind of like that. now imagine the grand canyon has erupting vol canno in the sky. the eclipse is like. host: what is your favorite part of watching the eclipse? guest: the things you can't see otherwise. can't see those specific stars that we'll see during the them atugust, i can see night in february. worried about looking at the stars, looking at the can see ity time you is during the eclipse. didn't mention, we get around the horizon, 360 egrees around the horizon, we get sunset colors. dark where the sun is and gets down to the ground and on the ground it is just after colors. it goes all the way around. professor, thank you for your time. thank you. > we're joined by the guest we started with, you heard a lot of things. science related question, can recap what he asked and the answer was? i don't remember. uest: he was talking abou

i'm nervous but excited. >> nervous about what? you dominated at home and dominated tampa bay. >> we can't compare this game to the last games. >> they want back to back titles and why not? they have home field advantage and they dominated tampa bay winning all three match-ups. >> i expect to win the game. this is a good football team and know how to win. we won 17 straight games at home. >> the soul is undefeated at home since last april. one big one is left to win. jeff skversky, channel 6 "action news." >>> brian dawkins will be the coin tosser, catch at arena bowl on 6 abc saturday night at 7:00. >>> the phillies and marlins meet at 7:00. the phils hit eight home runs despite losing the game. >> it's great to see in this park it's conducive for hitting the long ball. i hope it continues and stanton comes in and everybody is waiting for him to hit one and blanco hit two. >>> and the union are up north to face the best team in mls. toronto. and they need all the help they can. goalie andre blake is back after missing eight games

everybody‘s excited, it's underan hour events.'s under an hour until totality. what we are expecting is that the sweltering conditions will really cool down once the moon completely blocks the sun. you can hear some crickets. we expect them to go silent. everybody is anticipating that big moment. we are looking at a map which helps us to understand this 70 mile wide sweep, and it shows us kentucky, tennesseejust below you. give us the time when you are going to be in that absolute blackness. when is that? at 124 my time locally, that's a six hour time difference, so 7:2apm your time. in about a0 minutes or so, if i'm not mistaken. at the moment, it's like a bite has been taken out of the sun. but, as the moon's shadow blocks it, everybody here is talking about seeing that diamond ring effect, and then those beads, the two little beads whether some's globe is blocked by the moon's valleys right before totality. right in this spot, we are well placed to view it, because this has been named eclipse ville. look at the expense of farml

the crowd is getting excited. guys, who is excited for the solar eclipse?eering] >> it is getting closer. it is close to nighttime. it is incredible. very dim. >> it definitely feels like do awn or dusk here. >> come on!

why are americans excited about this? angela: i think people are generally excited about science. if you look on social media, there are so many jokes about schrodinger's cat, and that is something that doesn't happen if you don't like science. most people don't get to see more than one of these. most people never see one. down this one is coming and the last one we had on mainland u.s. was 38 years ago. that was only visible in the northwest. the last one that went years ago.ast was 99 it is a mixture of that is cool and i may not get to see this again. i think they are realizing they are seeing things they may never get to see, that makes it super exciting. it is also a little bit like -- i want to go to the grand canyon and you see a picture and it is cool, but you want to see it in the flesh. but it is ifat, the grand canyon is in the sky. >> what is your favorite part of watching the eclipse? angela: the things you can't see otherwise. although we can't see the specific stars we will see during the day in august, i can see them at night in february. i'm not worried about look

they have to be really exciting to stimulate demand.e other hand, in many emerging markets like china in the last few years and more and more india, and i think other areas of latin america, middle east there is plenty of growth , as the smartphone pervades the use across the world. so those companies, for example, we are working with companies that primarily used to focus on north america or china. now they started exporting to southeast asia and india as well. that is how our chips get used. caroline: the chips in the mobile phone spring to mind. you are talking about potentially exciting new phones coming on the market. one of the big companies that you supply to is apple. are you excited about the launch of the new iphone 8? how much is dependent on this product? >> we have been a supplier to this very successful company for a number of years, and along with all the other suppliers, we will watch this space and see what the new products are like and what they decide to use, but we have lined up exciting q3-q4 growth. pre-christmas,

people are excited about the idea. i think this is one of those things where even if you have not seen one, you are aware of the concept. once you start to hear more about it, people get excited. i have been going all over the country, doing talks, trying to help people get excited and get ready because it will be such a huge event. there will be people like, i was not sure and then i heard you talk about is going to happen and now i am excited. and these people have not even seen one yet. i think what we will see is there will be people who, this really is for them a lifetime -- then a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. they will make the opportunity to come and see it could -- see it. how will be blown away by amazing it is and the all over experience. they will be changed by it. next question on the phone. taylor. >> can you hear me? dwayne: loud and clear. affiliateom an npr station in west kentucky. is whereanted to know is never going to be posted during the eclipse? we've heard rumors about you guys coming to west
