Solar Eclipse Of Heart

NASA

The Moon, seen here backlit by the Sun during a solar eclipse on April 6, 2026, is photographed by one of the cameras on the Orion spacecraft's solar array wings. During lunar flyby, the Artemis II astronauts observed a solar eclipse that only they could see due to their unique position.
