If you're not reading this from Europe, then you weren't able to catch a glimpse of yesterday's stunning solar eclipse. Heck, even if you were in Europe, you probably couldn't see it [1] because of some unfortunately timed cloud cover! But luckily, it's 2015 — we have experts here and in space who are active on social media, which means that your Twitter feed might just be the best place to view future planetary phenomena.
Thanks to astronauts (who have the best view in the house — aka the solar system) and space institutions like NASA [2], the ESA [3], and the CSA [4], people like us can view stunning space events right from our living rooms. Check out these insane captures of yesterday's eclipse from Earth and from the International Space Station, and you'll remember why you've always dreamt of becoming an astronaut.
