A partial solar eclipse was seen on October 25, 2022 over part of France before clouds took over the sky. In Paris, astronomer Jocelyn Desmar managed to get a great shot.
With a surface of the sun hidden from 24 to 31%, Paris, Lille or Strasbourg were the main cities in France where partial eclipse It promised to be the hottest on October 25th. Fortunately, they were relatively spared the drag.
In the capital, astronomer Jocelyn Desmars (Paris Observatory) was ready to immortalize the moment. He was even better, capturing a plane runway in front of the sun as the moon slowly passed, 380,000 kilometers away.
At about the same time (around noon), equipped with a grouper Spectrum of Midoun Observatoryhis colleagues picked up ionized hydrogen radiation from our star.
