Astronauts aboard the International Space Station orbited right past the solar eclipse Monday and grabbed some intriguing photos.
The path of totality in the Moon’s shadow can be seen plunging the Northeastern coast of the US and part of Canada into darkness, while seven crew members watched from space.
Orbiting 260 miles above the ground, members of the Expedition 71 crew experienced the shadow, or umbra, moving across portions of Quebec and New Brunswick and the American state of Maine.
Then, it was gone—because the ISS is traveling at 17,500 miles an hour.
Aboard the International Space Station to witness the celestial event were NASA astronauts Matthew Dominick, Michael Barratt, Jeanette Epps, and Tracy Dyson, as well as cosmonauts Oleg Kononenko, Nikolai Chub, and Alexander Grebenkin.
Other satellites captured unique images like these, too.
