Trivia: What might you see during a total solar eclipse?
Baily’s beads
Mercury in retrograde
Aurora borealis
Apogee
The correct answer is Baily’s beads
So why is this answer correct? : Baily’s beads are an optical phenomenon seen during total and annular solar eclipses that resemble a string of bright spots. Just before the moon eclipses the sun, a thin crescent of sunlight is broken by irregularities on the moon’s surface, such as mountains and valleys, resulting in the dotted light spots.
