NASA Captures Images Of Earth From Space During Solar Eclipse
The total solar eclipse on Saturday, December 4 was most clearly visible
from Antarctica and some parts of South America along with other southern
spots of the Earth like Australia and New Zealand.
While space enthusiasts in these places made elaborate arrangements to witness
the last solar eclipse of 2021, astronauts in space also got a chance to
witness the phenomenon.
"Saturday morning, the Expedition 66 crew squeezed into the Cupola to check
out the total solar eclipse that occurred over Antarctica and the Southern
Ocean. Here the moon casts an oblong shadow on the Earth’s surface. It was
an incredible sight to behold."
