The annular solar eclipse that was visible earlier this month in parts of Africa, the Indian Ocean and Asia yielded some beautiful photographs of the moon obscuring the light from the sun. But none of them provided the kind of exquisite detail that a team of astronomers watching from the Marshall Islands captured during last summer’s total solar eclipse. By combining 31 images of the eclipse shot with a Canon EOS 5D, the composite shows the incredible structure of the sun’s corona stretching out from occluded central disc. The moon’s surface details are also clearly visible. Link: http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2...es-show-dazzling-corona-detail/#ixzz0dsMK78LM
If you look carefully, you can see the alien craft in the bottom right heading down to earth to make a crop circle in likeness of Paula Abdul.
