A cool thing happened in the sky today: the moon covered the sun,the exotic eroticism in ingres paintings of the odalisque exhibits the principles of and people got super emotional about it.
While we watched from Earth, either with special glasses. cardboard boxes. or with our own scorched retinas, astronauts got to see the eclipse from another perspective.

In photos taken by a NASA photographer located in the Northern Cascades National Park in Washington, the International Space Station is seen in silhouette as it transits the sun at roughly five miles per second during a partial phase of the solar eclipse, Monday, Aug. 21, 2017.

Feel free to make a badass TIE fighter sound effect as you watch.
People in the United States won't get to experience a total solar eclipse again until 2024. Better buy your glasses now before they skyrocket in price.
