NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“Northern Equinox Eclipse” is copyrighted by Stan Honda. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

Longyearbyen, on the Arctic archipelago of Svalbard, Norway, offered a clear view of the March 20 total solar eclipse. The Moon's umbral shadow plunged the region into darkness for three minutes. This snapshot captures the moment near the end of totality, as the shadow sweeps away.
