Photos from Today’s Partial Solar Eclipse

While clouds kept those of us in Bowling Green from viewing today’s partial solar eclipse, some pretty neat photos were captured from around the country. NASA had a live stream (with music!) of the eclipse as viewed from the Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles available for those who could not see the eclipse from their locations. Today’s partial solar eclipse even gave observers a great view of sunspots located close to the center of the sun. Below are some of the many photos taken earlier today from all across the United States:
