I think there's something to be said for the eclipses here just barely working. like, the moon covers the sun so perfectly cleanly. saturn the moons are way bigger in comparison to the sun so it's less of a dramatic thing

We happen to not only live in a unique time period and circumstance, but also be aware that we live in it.

I dunno if you've ever heard of this but you reminded me of this school of thought: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthropic_principle

Proponents of the anthropic principle argue that it explains why the universe has the age and the fundamental physical constants necessary to accommodate conscious life, since if either had been different, no one would have been around to make observations. Anthropic reasoning is often used to deal with the idea that the universe seems to be finely tuned for the existence of life.
