You may have heard there was a solar eclipse in North America today. Well, one of our intrepid readers, Peter Starkweather, captured this fantastic event and shared the image with us. This was a partial solar eclipse for those of us residing in southern Nevada, meaning the sun wasn’t fully blacked out by the moon.
Here are the technical details about the photograph above, because those are cool too:
