NW Iowa | Our bodies obtain a certain schedule as to when it should be dark and light and the schedule slowly changes with the gradual change in day length. I think hat schedule is thrown off during a total eclipse, it's a mental thing. I have never experienced a full eclipse. What I did experience was something that happened during a flight from Minneapolis to Amsterdam. We flew out of Minneapolis at around 6:30 pm the last of August and flew northeast. The sun set real fast in the west because we were flying east but in two hours after sunset the sun came back up in the east. It really messed with me. I was accustomed to 10 or 12 hours of dark but this time it was dark for two hours and then the sun came back up. It was an 8 hour flight but I couldn't sleep on the plane for love or money because the sun was abruptly up at the wrong time according to my body's sleep schedule. | |
