Cool Pic of The Night

Just saw this photo on a blog and thought it was so way cool dude.(My fever must be getting worse). Anywho this picture is of what the Earth looks like during a solar eclipse. This was taken from the MIR in 1999. The black area of course is the result of the moon going in front of the sun. Now if you want to see a real cool optical illusion go here(This is not an animated gif but a true illusion). Tip of the hat to miss information blog.
