Earlier this week, a total solar eclipse gave skywatchers in South America a very good reason to gaze at the heavens. Only a very small number of people were lucky enough to see it thanks to the path of the eclipse gracing just a small strip of Chile and Argentina, but that didn’t stop scientists from capturing it in all its glory.
The lovely five-minute timelapse of the eclipse that NASA published is a great way to relive the event, especially if you missed the live stream as it happened… but what if you don’t have five minutes to spare? Look, I get it, and so does NOAA, which put together a rather stunning seconds-long satellite time-lapse showing the eclipse shadow moving across Earth.
