Double Eclipse
This is one of the coolest photographs I have ever seen in our solar system. This picture was taken during a partial solar eclipse. Well there was not only one eclipse, but two. There is a flying object projected on the Sun which happens to be the International Space Station. What also makes this an awesome photo is the detail in the Moon, and the ability to see its imperfects and craters. There are a couple Sun spots, one fairly large one to the bottom left, that could be estimated to be as large or larger than Earth. The photo was a hard one to take apparently due to the International Space Station only making an approximated one second transition across the Sun's pathway. The complete picture is stunning, and it is not often so many great sights are capture in one photograph withing our Solar system.
