Summary edit
| Description |
English: As the lunar shadow moved across the surface, satellites detected a decrease in surface temperatures. The maps above show surface temperatures as measured by Terra’s MODIS on August 19, 2017, and August 21, 2017. Notice the clear line between these two Terra overpasses on the day of the eclipse. Land surface temperatures were significantly cooler (bluer) in the central United States at 12:50 p.m (17:50 Universal Time) on August 21, 2017, when Terra collected imagery of the shadow. In comparison, there was little difference in land surface temperatures between the two overpasses on August 19. |
