Satellites experience eclipses too!

GOES satellites encounter two periods during the year in which they are in Earth's shadow. Known as the #Eclipse (ECL) season, these periods require the spacecraft to be completely dependent upon batteries for a maximum of 72 minutes daily.

Eclipses occur approximately from late February to mid-April, and from late August to mid-October.

#DidYouKnow that one of the oldest records of a solar #eclipse may date back more than 5,000 years?

The next one will occur this Monday, April 8, 2024!

#DidYouKnow that #eclipse shadows can travel very fast, and this speed varies depending on where on Earth they occur?

Let’s see how fast it reaches you on April 8!

Although a total solar #eclipse happens once every year or two somewhere on Earth, the one tomorrow will be the last seen from the contiguous U.S. until Aug. 23, 2044.

We are now two hours away from the #2024SolarEclipse totality in the U.S., with the partial eclipse starting at 6:27 am HST in Pu‘uali‘i, Hawaii!

Tune in for @NOAA coverage coming to you live from Dallas, TX, a stop on the moon's path of totality.

When the moon steals the show during a total solar #eclipse, it's not just the sky that's transformed. With temperatures dropping and light fading, animals try to adjust to the brief twilight.
