Explanation:
Yesterday, the Moon's shadow
reached out and
touched the Earth,
treating a large portion of the Western Hemisphere
to an Eclipse of the Sun.
This
composite image
combines pictures of the Sun made from
both Earth and space.
The central direct image of the solar surface was recorded
yesterday by the
Extreme Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope on board the space based SOHO
observatory.
It is surrounded by a telescopic picture of the Sun as seen from the
island of Aruba during the total eclipse.
The surrounding view of the eclipsed Sun reveals
the gleaming solar corona,
visible to ground based observers
during totality.
Such combined images can help connect explosive events and features
on the Sun's surface with the corona and solar wind.
