"Stunning Satellite Footage: Total Solar Eclipse's Shadow Races Across North America at 1500 mph"
Satellite footage and astronaut images captured the moon's shadow racing across North America during the total solar eclipse on April 8, with totality lasting up to 4 minutes and 28 seconds. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's satellite GOES-16 recorded the eclipse from its fixed position above North America, while astronauts aboard the International Space Station also observed the event. The moon's shadow, or umbra, moved at over 1,500 mph, creating a striking visual spectacle, and the ISS experienced around 90% totality.
