DAYTON, Ohio (WDTN) - There is a solar eclipse happening right now across the Pacific Ocean and western United States.  Here's a link to the live images from The University of New Mexico's sun telescope.
 

The eclipse is also visible from the GOES satellite image.  Click here to see a loop of the clouds.  If you notice a shadow figure that is the eclipse.

An eclipse happens when the moon passes between the Earth and the Sun.  The moon blocks out a part of the sun.  The next solar eclipse will happen later this year but will be visible only near Australia.
