It goes to 9 minutes from 8, since every single communication gadget will yell out that the sun has disappeared as reports come in from the other side of the earth.

Depending on the lunar cycle, the night time side would notice the moon become dim.

Doubt anyone would notice the moon getting dim when the fucking sun disappears in the same second.

Well technically there’d be earth glow so it wouldn’t be totally dark.

Ok yeah you’d definitely want any story to have the sun disappear take place at night, with a full moon, possibly a large harvest moon for ambiance. The moon disappears and within minutes you’re bombarded with calls…
