APOD 2.3

This picture, posted on the 4th of November, 2013, depicts a partial solar eclipse over the city of New York. A total solar eclipse was viewed by people in just south of Ghana in the Atlantic Ocean. People in the United States viewed the solar eclipse at an angle making it look as if there was a chunk taken out of the sun as it rose over the city. The nearest total solar eclipse that can be viewed from the United States will occur on the 21st of August in the year 2017.
