The total solar eclipse on Saturday, December 4 was most clearly visible from Antarctica and some parts of South America along with other southern spots of the Earth like Australia and New Zealand.
While space enthusiasts in these places made elaborate arrangements to witness the last solar eclipse of 2021, astronauts in space also got a chance to witness the phenomenon.
"Saturday morning, the Expedition 66 crew squeezed into the Cupola to check out the total solar eclipse that occurred over Antarctica and the Southern Ocean. Here the moon casts an oblong shadow on the Earth’s surface. It was an incredible sight to behold."
