Explanation:
This is how the Sun disappeared from the daytime sky last month.
The
featured time-lapse video
was created from stills taken from
Mountain View,
Arkansas,
USA
on 2024 April 8.
First, a small sliver of a normally
spotted Sun went strangely dark.
Within a few minutes, much of the background
Sun
was hidden behind the advancing foreground
Moon.
Within an hour, the only rays from the Sun
passing the Moon appeared like a
diamond ring.
During totality, most of the
surrounding sky went dark,
making the bright
pink prominences
around the Sun's edge stand out, and making the
amazing corona
appear to spread into the surrounding sky.
The central view of the
corona shows an accumulation of frames
taken during complete totality.
As the video ends, just a few minutes later,
another diamond ring appeared --
this time on the
other side of the Moon.
Within the next hour, the sky
returned to normal.
