Explanation:
What if the Sun and Moon rose together?
That
happened yesterday over some northern parts of
planet Earth as a
partial solar eclipse occurred shortly after sunrise.
Regions that experienced the Moon blocking part of the
Sun included northeastern parts of
North America and northwestern parts of
Europe,
Asia, and
Africa.
The featured image was captured yesterday over the
GrcbrcEk volcanic crater in
Iceland
where much of the Sun became momentarily hidden behind the Moon.
The image was taken through a cloudy sky but
so well planned that the photographer's friend
appeared to be pulling the Sun out from behind the Moon.
No part of the Earth experienced a
total solar eclipse this time.
In the distant past, some of humanity was
so surprised when an eclipse occurred that ongoing
battles suddenly stopped.
Today, eclipses are not a surprise and are
predicted with an accuracy of seconds.
