[edit]DescriptionD.C. eclipsed in hybrid solar event (10696089826).jpg |
English: A partial solar eclipse was caught at sunrise on Nov. 3, 2013, from a building near the NSF headquarters in Arlington, Va. Although the eclipse was only partial in the U.S., it was a rare “hybrid eclipse” over parts of the Atlantic Ocean and Africa, where some areas saw a total eclipse, and others saw an annular eclipse, where a very slight ring of sunlight remained visible around the moon. According to Andrew Clegg, the photographer and a program officer in NSF’s Mathematical and Physical Sciences Directorate, "The sun was only visible through a thin 'layer of clearness' for about five minutes before it disappeared behind clouds."
