Just like almost everyone else in the United States, Google is amped about the total solar eclipse sweeping the nation on Monday. 。

An adorable new doodle reimagines the solar eclipse not as the result of the orbital motion of heavenly bodies, but as the product of a game between two aliens tossing the moon in front of the sun.。

It's pretty cute.。

First, this will be the first coast-to-coast total solar eclipse in 99 years when starts in Oregon and ends in South Carolina later today. The eclipse is also unique in that millions of people around the country will get the chance to see the cosmic event.。

Usually solar eclipses only pass over sparsely populated parts of the world (because most of the world is sparsely populated). 。


While the total eclipse will only be seen by people in a 70-mile-wide path between Oregon and South Carolina, everyone in North America will have the chance to see a partial eclipse. 。
