the Oldest Surviving Video of a Total Solar Eclipse
It was done in -- wait for it -- 1900!
The first total solar eclipse to be filmed has recently been restored.
The film was done by Nevil Maskelyne,
an illusionist turned astronomic videographer for the British Royal Astronomical Society.
This 1900 film is actually Maskelyne's second attempt at filming a total solar eclipse.
His first attempt was in 1898,
when he traveled all the way to India to be at the right place
to view a predicted total eclipse.
Maskelyne got there in time, but sadly, his film was stolen,
and the crime remains unsolved and the film unrecovered.
