Touchdown! Greaser!
I have carried on in the past here in protest of the inexplicable motions of sky objects, and received good assistance from the astronomers in the crowd.
How about this one?
I am looking at NASA's map of the 2023 & 2024 solar eclipses with a huge ? over my head.
Look at the map and dream up some slightly plausible explanation of how the two years' eclipses plan to cross paths in an X instead of something more reasonable, like parallel paths.
(The X happens to be close to me so I have ordered a do it yourself home survival bunker and a goodly supply of the newer lead-lined foil hats.)
What is making the solar eclipse paths so wildly different?

New NASA Map Details 2023 and 2024 Solar Eclipses in the US - NASA Science
Based on observations from several NASA missions, the map details the path of the Moon’s shadow as it crosses the contiguous U.S. during eclipses in 2023 and 2024.
