A 3-image composite of the April 8, 2024 total solar eclipse shows the entire duration of the totality phase, which lasted about 4 minutes.<\/p>\n
1: Bailey\u2019s Beads, signifying the beginning of totality. The last rays of sunlight shone through depressions on the lunar surface \u2013 valleys or craters \u2013 forming the Bailey\u2019s Beads on the top of the eclipsed sun.<\/p>\n
2: Totality, showing the corona which can only be seen during a total eclipse. The corona is the outer layer of the sun\u2019s atmosphere and extends millions of kilometres from the sun, with temperature reaching a million degrees Celsius.<\/p>\n
3: Diamond ring, captured at the end of totality, when the first rays of sunlight shone through depressions from craters on the lunar surface. The bloom from the strong sunlight formed the \u201cdiamond\u201d on the ring of corona.<\/p>\n
Captured at Lake Magog, Quebec, Canada.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2665,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"default","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center
