Copyright: Sergio Montúfar (Planetario Ciudad de La Plata​ / Facultad de Ciencias Astronómicas y Geofísicas de La Plata. Argentina) 10 x 3.2s The event was livestreamed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVzNAG...

I trully like the event, not because of the light that gets to the ground when the earth is between the Sun and the Moon, I love this event, because it's the only way we can trully perciben (see) earth's spherical shape.. Yup, pure science evidence.
