   Explanation: Start at the upper left above and you can follow the
   progress of [4]April 8's total eclipse of the Sun in seven sharp,
   separate exposures. The image sequence was recorded with a telescope
   and camera located within the narrow path of totality as the [5]Moon's
   shadow swept across Newport, Vermont, USA. At center is a spectacular
   view of [6]the solar corona. The tenuous outer atmosphere of the Sun is
   only easily visible to the eye in clear dark skies during the total
   eclipse phase. [7]Seen from Newport, the total phase for this solar
   eclipse lasted about 3 minutes and 26 seconds.
