Shot immediately after Totality on 21 August 2017. NASA flew a jet aircraft at a matching speed across the United States so it would stay in Totality for the longest possible time while they made measurements with a bunch of different sensors. Knowing that they were going to do that, I had a camera ready right after Totality to capture this aircraft flying by. Preparedness is better than luck!
