APOD: 2024 March 24 – Looking Back at an Eclipsed Earth
A different astronomy and space science related image is featured each day, along with a brief explanation.apod.nasa.gov
I remember that one, the only solar eclipse I experienced myself. We had only a partial one where I was, but that was still impressive.
I was working that day, just outside for lunch in a major street with my colleagues. Suddenly it became darker, much darker than clouds could have done it, and a surprisingly cold wind swept along the street, stirring up leaves and dust. We had solar eclipse glasses, so we could seen the partially darkened sun directly. I am glad I saw that.
