What we will see in the sky during totality?

About this video

Most of our time will be focused on Sun during the minutes of totality on April 8th, but consider tearing yourself away for a few seconds to put it all in context. During the April 8th solar eclipse, the daytime sky will darken dramatically. While the sun itself will be hidden by the moon, some celestial visitors will become visible. Look for bright planets and a few brave stars to peek through the twilight. This fleeting glimpse into the daytime sky offers a unique opportunity to see celestial objects usually hidden by the sun's glare.
