#SolarEclipse2017: The PICTURES you have to see

A composite image of the total solar eclipse seen from the Lowell Observatory Solar Eclipse Experience August 21, 2017 in Madras, Oregon.

Americans gazed upwards in their millions on Monday, as a total solar eclipse swept the country.

It was the first such eclipse to go from the west to east coasts of the US in 99 years.

From schoolchildren in Missouri to mounted patrol officers in Idaho, the nation was transfixed by the sight of the Moon drifting in front of the Sun, and blocking its light.

An image of the solar eclipse is projected onto a hand in Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico, 21 August 2017

This composite image, made from seven frames, shows the International Space Station, with a crew of six onboard, as it transits the Sun at roughly five miles per second during a partial solar eclipse, Monday, Aug. 21, 2017 near Banner, Wyoming.
