Did you catch the eclipse today?
In this photo taken on April 8, 2024, the Moon is seen passing in front of the Sun, with the top of the Washington Monument in silhouette, during a partial solar eclipse in Washington, D.C.
A total solar eclipse swept across a narrow portion of the North American continent from Mexico’s Pacific coast to the Atlantic coast of Newfoundland, Canada. A partial solar eclipse was visible across the entire North American continent along with parts of Central America and Europe.
Image description: During the partial eclipse, the Sun appears in a crescent Moon shape in a dark sky as clouds pass in the lower part of the image. Below the Sun is the dark silhouette of the Washington Monument, pointing upward toward the eclipse.
