The astronauts aboard the ISS were amazed by the April 8 solar eclipse, just like the rest of us, and went crazy snapping photos from orbit.

They got some amazing views of the Moon's shadow sweeping across southern Canada & Maine, seen from 420 km (261 miles) above: https://www.flickr.com/photos/nasa2explore/with/53645140833 #space #eclipse #space #astronomy

Even with all the eclipse photos circulating right now, this one made my eyes pop. Great shot of jet contrails breaking up the edge of the eclipsed Sun. Quick calculation: The Sun is about 30,000,000 times wider than the jet.

Lots of people are sharing beautiful eclipse photos today taken with high-end equipment.

For the rest of us, let me share the blurry pic I took by tilting my phone up for half a second and shooting through the clouds in Prescott, ON.

We also had shortbread cookies from our friend's mom, and took bites to match the eclipse's progress. That was the second best part.

logré tomar esto. Se atravesó una nubesota cuando estaba lo mero bueno pero se alcanzó a apreciar.

No es mucho pero es un trabajo honesto.

The full day’s solar generation. We hit the usual peak of 6 kW around 11 AM until 11:55 AM, and then it dropped to 2.3 kW by 12:50 PM. By 1:55 PM it was back up to 6 kW. Around 2:30 PM it started the usual drop to 0 kW by 7:25 PM.

PSA: if you are not in the path of totality, you don't really want eclipse sunglasses. You want _a colander_.

This is a three hour long #photo sequence I took in Jan 2019 during a total lunar #eclipse at ESO's Paranal Observatory in #Chile

As the #Moon moves into the Earth's shadow it becomes red. When sunlight passes through the Earth's atmosphere, blue light is scattered away more efficiently than red light, which passes through almost unimpeded, like at #sunrise or #sunset.

From the Moon, you would see the Earth surrounded by a golden fiery ring.

The Earth, today.

That’s here. That’s home. That’s us.
