Celestial ballet and solar diamond

April 8, 2024, a spectacular – and rare – phenomenon! – occurred in the skies of Canada, the United States and Mexico: a total solar eclipse. When the moon aligned perfectly between the Earth and the sun, parts of these countries were briefly plunged into darkness, much to the delight of countless observers.

​

Sherbrooke was the perfect place for the occasion. We had a cloudless sky and one of the longest observation windows, 3 minutes 23 seconds.
