Earth During a Total Eclipse of the Sun
When the Moon's shadow falls on Earth during a total solar eclipse, that region appears dark from space. The shadow moves at nearly 2,000 kilometers per hour, darkening locations for only a few minutes. This image, from the International Space Station, shows Earth during the 2006 eclipse.
