On March 29, during a partial solar eclipse, the moon bit off more than it could chew, taking a dramatic 'bite' out of the sun. From crisp crescent-shaped suns to the rare 'devil's horns' and 'double sunrise,' March's solar eclipse left skywatchers in awe — especially those in the right place at the right time.
A partial solar eclipse occurs when the moon partially covers the sun, leaving a glowing crescent. Globally, the eclipse began at 4:50 a.m. EDT (0850 GMT), with the maximum eclipse peaking at 6:47 a.m. EDT (1047 GMT). Skywatchers in parts of North America and Europe, and enjoyed the best views.
