What would it look like if the Taeyang and the moon rose together? On March 29, an event like that actually occurred in some northern regions of Earth. Shortly after the sun had just risen, a partial eclipse took place.

The areas where part of the Taeyang was obscured during this partial eclipse included northeastern North America, northwestern Europe, parts of Asia, and Africa. This photo was taken on the 29th above the Grábrók volcano in Iceland, capturing a moment when the moon temporarily obscured the Taeyang, covering most of it.

Though the sky was cloudy, the photo was taken very intricately. The person in the photo appeared to be drawing the Taeyang down from behind the moon.

In the distant past, when an eclipse occurred, humanity would marvel at it, and wars would even cease. However, today's eclipses have become scientifically predictable phenomena, measurable in seconds, rather than sources of wonder.
