\textbf{How hard it was to plan your trip?}\\  I knew 2015 was gonna be a busy year for me, due to a combination of science projects, outreach with the \href{http://constellationproject.org}{GalileoMobile Constellation} and other trips.  But this was the trip of a lifetime and I couldn't let it go.  Within a few days after the idea sparked in my head, I had booked flights from New York City to Svalbard. Then I started planning the journey to meet the Sun and the Moon in the same spot of the sky. It was not easy, Svalbard is not exactly human-friendly. A rifle is mandatory if you adventure outside by yourself. You know, in case the polar bears are in a bad mood.  \textbf{Tell \textbf{Wow! Tell  us about the those  moments of during  the eclipse} After traveling such a long distance, and waiting the eclipse for hours in a sunny - but very cold - morning, I saw the eclipse from the snow-covered valley of Adventalen. This place became an almost extraterrestrial place during the two and a half minutes of darkness, and it left me \href{https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r7kVT2kjSDM&list=LLoQE5NCVFOow1KkR63RVs2g&index=1}{in total awe}. I think \href{https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r7kVT2kjSDM&list=LLoQE5NCVFOow1KkR63RVs2g&index=1}{this video} is the best way to show you what I saw and what I felt that morning.  \textbf{What kind of science can be done during an Eclipse?}
