A stunning picture......
As New Scientist describes....
EERIE at best, terrifying at worst, this 2009 solar eclipse was a monster. Maximum totality – when the sun is completely covered by the moon – in this case lasted a whopping 6.6 minutes, and won't be repeated on such a scale until 2132. Czech photographer Miloslav Druckmüller and his daughter witnessed the spectacle from the Enewetak Radiological Observatory on the Marshall Islands in the North Pacific Ocean, which fell within the narrow path of total darkness cast across the globe.
