4月20日,新月的阴影沿着一条狭窄的路径快速穿过地球的南半球,形成了罕见的日环食或混合型日食。虽然只有62秒的日全食可以被看到,但当黑暗的月球中央阴影刚刚掠过澳大利亚西部的西北角半岛时。从上到下,这些面板捕捉了短暂的日全食阶段的开始、中间和结束。在开始和结束的时候,太阳的日珥和阳光的珠子从月球边缘流过。在日食中,中央的画面显示出只有在全食时才容易看到的景象,这是日食追逐者最珍视的,那就是活跃太阳的壮丽日冕。当然,日食往往是成对出现的。5月5日,下一个满月将在半影月食中与地球阴影的黑暗内部擦肩而过。2023年4月日全食画廊:值得注意的提交给APOD手表:行星地球的年度Lyrid流星雨

Along a narrow path that mostly avoided landfall, the shadow of the New Moon raced across planet Earth's southern hemisphere on April 20 to create a rare annular-total or hybrid solar eclipse. A mere 62 seconds of totality could be seen though, when the dark central lunar shadow just grazed the North West Cape, a peninsula in western Australia. From top to bottom these panels capture the beginning, middle, and end of that fleeting total eclipse phase. At start and finish, solar prominences and beads of sunlight stream past the lunar limb. At mid-eclipse the central frame reveals the sight only easily visible during totality and most treasured by eclipse chasers, the magnificent corona of the active Sun. Of course eclipses tend to come in pairs. On May 5, the next Full Moon will just miss the dark inner part of Earth's shadow in a penumbral lunar eclipse.
