NASA's Illuminate: An EPIC Eclipse View

An EPIC eclipse view, indeed! 🌎🔭 One year ago today, NASA’s Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera, or EPIC, captured this footage of the April 8, 2024, total solar eclipse. From its vantage point on the DSCOVR satellite roughly 1 million miles away from Earth, EPIC reveals the impressive scale of the Moon’s shadow: It stretched 115 miles across and raced across the U.S. at over 2,000 miles an hour.
