WOW! Whilst we were all looking up, the crew on the ISS were looking down on the shadow from the eclipse yesterday. Super stuff!

WOW!..what a sight :D

coruscations attending the whole length of the luminosity, giving to the phenomena the aspect of a wrathful messenger, and not that of a tranquil body pursuing a harmless course..comet of 1680

OK, now that is cool! I'm actually surprised by how big the shadow appears.

That is incredible, :shock: during totality we could see a thin ring of yellow light all around the horison, I didnt think the shadow was soo big, then again totality was nearly 4 minutes long, so the shadow would need to be big.
