Space station transits sun during eclipse

There was only one spot on Earth where you could catch the International Space Station crossing the sun's face during Monday's solar eclipse. These guys saw it, and created this video!

Confused sunflowers during eclipse

A solar eclipse causes changes in the sun and sky, in the illumination of the landscape around you, in animals and in plants. Here's how sunflowers in Ontario, Canada reacted.

Crescent suns - created via the pinhole effect - on buildings in downtown Portland, Oregon during the eclipse. Cool photo and an awesome effect to watch for during eclipses.

Tonight … Moon, Jupiter, Spica again

Charts showing how to spot them, plus an explanation of Jupiter's movement in front of the stars, as this outer planet and Earth both orbit the sun.

Tonight … Moon, Jupiter, Spica again

If you don't see Spica, wait a bit until the sky darkens.
