Explanation:
If
the Sun is up
but the sky is dark and the horizon is bright all around,
you might be standing in the Moon's shadow during a total eclipse of
the Sun.
In fact, the all-sky Moon shadow shown in this
composited panoramic view was captured
from a farm near Shirley, Arkansas, planet Earth.
The exposures were made under clear skies during the
April
8 total solar eclipse.
For that location near the center line of the Moon's shadow track,
totality lasted over 4 minutes.
Along with the solar corona surrounding the
silhouette
of the Moon
planets and stars were visible during the total eclipse phase.
Easiest to see here
are bright planets Venus and Jupiter, to the lower right
and upper left of the eclipsed Sun.
