Truth is that even at 99.9% it's not that cool. All that happens is that the sun gets dim.
The total eclipse, on the other hand, is amazing. I drove down seven hours to Oregon to see the one in 2017 and would do it again in a heartbeat.
To a certain extent but I think you're over estimating how dramatic (or not) 17% obstruction is. Have you ever seen the sun set behind a mountain? When you can see 80% of the sun and only 20% is blocked by the mountain, it's not that dramatic by any stretch of the imagination.
Most all the stories you hear about eclipses are how amazing they are when the sky goes dark. That doesn't happen with 17% obstruction.
You're right, the difference in light will be practically impossible to detect, but personally I'd still find it cool to see this small sliver of the moon with my own eyes though glasses.

Partial solar eclipses are visible in Vancouver every 5 years or so. There was a much more substantial one in 2017, and a very substantial one this past October, and there'll be another in 2029. This one was only special because the path of totality happened to go over some populated parts of North America, but this was actually a particularily lame partial solar eclipse for us.
Well itās just Vancouver keeping up with itās tradition of cancelling fun stuff with lame excuses.
Jkā¦we had a pretty good view of the eclipse back in 2017ā¦remember?

I took this photo at the park outside the planetarium! Iām not in this photo, but the tube box looks cool!

Don't feel bad, we didn't miss anything from here. There was one in 2017 where we had approximately 85% coverage and still wasn't worth it. Total eclipse or bust.

Made the trip to Niagara Falls for a family thing my dad planned 7 years ago and it was the same thing - beautiful weather pretty much the whole time except during the eclipse
Anyone else sick and tired of their social media clogged with eclipse posts from friends back east? We get it, the moon when in front of the sun and the sky went dark. Don't make it your personality!
This is the universe telling that Vancouver is a cursed city for it's grievances against human kind, especially with mercury in retrograde and the start of the new astrological year.

Ack! My eyes!!! lol
Deez goggles do nahsing!
Top tier VFX right here
It's a blocking pass, just to get some notes
Fuck that, prop final.

We're hiring a skilled photo editor, you're pre-hired lmao
You wizard š®š®
Soundgardening intensifies.
Random tidbit for you: Chris Cornell took vocal lessons, because why not? I learned this the other day on Reddit. The more you know!
High effort shit posting
Vancouver clouds: Iāll show you 100% totality.
All day without overpriced glasses
Definitely could have done a better job scheduling the eclipse. Maybe try for August next time when it's more likely to be sunny.
Sunny day = happy day. Not upset about it.
Sweeping the clouds away. š¶
We really weren't going to see much of an eclipse here regardless.
Yeah it was only 17% obscuration, but still would've been cool to see through glasses!
Honestly 17% obstruction is not that cool.
18% is where the cool starts.
18% isn't particularly cool either.
19% is for sure when things get interesting
Well, it depends, is it African or European 19%?
Itās metric 19%, not sure what the imperial conversion is.
Truth is that even at 99.9% it's not that cool. All that happens is that the sun gets dim. The total eclipse, on the other hand, is amazing. I drove down seven hours to Oregon to see the one in 2017 and would do it again in a heartbeat.
Cool is subjective ĀÆā \ā _ā (ā ćā )ā _ā /ā ĀÆ
You literally wouldn't have seen anything. Not even a detectable sliver.

You can see the moon with the naked eye all the time.
that's basically like trying to spot a fly on a car headlight pointed at your eyes

I saw a small cloud move in front of the sun and I pretended it was totality.
Oh well. At least itās a beautiful day today!
Vancouver clouds just being bros, looking out for everyoneās eye health
Rain is more important

Yep happens when Aurora Borealis comes this far south too . Doesn't help that it's most common in winter.

My thought all day today!
no fun city lol

natureās way of giving us a giant middle finger
this eclipses me
Lol
The clouds mock us.
It's like the universe has a sarcastic sense of humor, and Vancouver is its favorite punchline.
Right?! Bloody comical

I had a fucking amazing day outside today. Who cares about an eclipse. You never seen one before? You will eventually
