“A Sunrise at Sunset Point” is copyrighted by Martin Ratcliffe. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThis time-lapse series captures a sunrise over Sunset Point in Bryce Canyon, Utah, during an annular solar eclipse. As the Moon passed in front of the Sun, local temperatures dropped, and the brilliant morning light became a subdued yellow. The images, taken at two-minute intervals, show the progression of the eclipse and the changing light on the reddish landscape.
