Did you catchlast week ’s solar eclipse ? Did you even know there was a solar eclipse last week ? It ’s okay if you did n’t — turn out it was only visible from high latitude in the southerly cerebral hemisphere , so chances are you would n’t have been capable to make out it anyway .
But luckily for all of us , photographerCarlos Zelayeta , who was stationed at a remote Argentine outpost in Antarctica , did . ( Click here for the hi - res translation . ) According to NASA :
From a television camera place at San Martín Station ( Argentina ) near the antarctic peninsula mountain kitchen stove , the picture seem toward the south and east . The Sun and silhouette lunar disk are seen through lean , low cloud . Perhaps fittingly , the cragged slope in the foreground is part of the declamatory Roman Four Promontory , named for its craggy , snow breed face that resembles the Romanist numeral IV [ last week ’s was the fourth , and final , partial solar occultation of 2011 ] .
