A live eclipse guide computes contact times, cloud conditions, terrain, and nearby viewpoints for the exact spot you choose.

Why it surfaced

SpyTheSky treats the 12 August 2026 eclipse as a sunset-viewing challenge: it checks clouds and samples the western terrain to find a clean horizon. The site also explains its sources—NASA GSFC calculations, Open-Meteo, and OpenStreetMap—and pairs the tool with unusually careful eye-safety guidance.

Thirty Patents for the Grave

August 13’s newborn domains include 30 safety-coffin patents, lost notices for false teeth and a box of hair, short films playing in 100 Tokyo taxis, and a Queensland river view arranged gauge by gauge downstream.

This is one of 1,000 discoveries in the 2026-08-13 Domain Arrivals issue.
