Eclipse Reminder - Earth is the only planet that we know of that has a perfect solar eclipse, since our moon happens to be about the exact same size as our sun when seen from the surface. As far as we know this is a coincidence, and about a one in a trillion bit of luck.

Probably why the Metaverse failed so bad is that Zuckerberg is not someone who wants to live in the metaverse, he wants to live on a ranch under the stars. He thought it was the future, but not for him, and you can't really build crazy advanced new consumer products that way.
