What would you do if you saw the Sun disappear? Quite possibly: cheer. That’s what many exuberant sky watchers did across Indonesia during a total eclipse of the Sun last week. There and then, the land and sky went dark during the day as our Sun disappeared for a few minutes behind our Moon. Many people watching knew they were witnessing a rare event, and their joyous exclamations can be heard on the featured video. What a far cry this reaction is from centuries ago, when more typical eclipse reactions derived from fear and worry. The video shows first shows a Sun only partly eclipsed by the Moon as totality approached. From many locations, foreground clouds on our Earth either obscured the view or made the view more interesting. The total eclipse was only visible from a narrow swath of Earth that included several Indonesian islands. At the same time, in the opposite direction, NASA’s EPIC camera aboard NOAA’s DSCOVR satellite captured the shadow of the Moon moving across the Earth. APOD is also available in: Arabic, Bahasa Indonesian, Catalan, Chinese, Chinese, Croatian, Czech, Dutch, Farsi, Farsi, Galego, German, French, Hebrew, Japanese, Korean, Montenegrin, Polish, Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Slovenian, Spanish, and Turkish

如果你看到太陽突然消失，你會怎樣反應呢？在印尼，很多欣喜若狂的天文愛好者正是這樣反應的。他們在上週的日全食期間，驚喜地目睹了白天的天地瞬間變得黑暗。此時，太陽在幾分鐘內被月亮完全遮擋。許多觀眾知道自己正在見證一個罕見事件，歡呼聲此起彼伏，讓人聽得見他們的快樂感受。
與幾個世紀前人們對日食的恐懼和擔憂反應相比，這樣的反應真是天壤之別。影片中顯示了最初太陽只被月亮部分遮擋的過程，隨著全食的接近，天空漸漸變暗。許多地點在觀賞時可能因為前景雲層的影響，要么無法看到，亦或是使得視覺效果更加迷人。這次日全食僅在印尼的一片狹窄地區可見，而在對面，NASA的EPIC相機則在NOAA的DSCOVR衛星上捕捉到了月亮的影子在地球上運行的情景。
