Kunio Sayanagi
Ars contributor Kunio Sayanagi was in the desert at New Mexico's El Malpais National Monument when the solar eclipse took place yesterday. He sent us in a couple of photos, and we've searched for others to give anyone who couldn't see the event directly the chance to appreciate it.
Although the visibility of the eclipse from Earth was limited to the Pacific Rim, it was also possible to watch it from space, as evidenced by this image from the joint JAXA/NASA Hinode mission.
Elsewhere in space, the ISS passed over the Pacific, allowing its occupants to photograph the shadow cast by the eclipse on the clouds below.
