NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center captured this image of a partial solar eclipse over Europe in March 2015 using its Sun-watching Proba-2 mini-satellite. Proba-2 used its SWAP imager to capture the Moon passing in front of the Sun in a near-totality. SWAP views the solar disc at extreme ultraviolet wavelengths to capture the turbulent surface of the Sun and its swirling corona.

The sky will darken as if it were dawn or dusk.
