         A totally eclipsed Sun is seen in the sky surrounded by a bright   
      corona. In the foreground several people watch it near a large tree. To   
        the right of the eclipsed Sun is the bright planet Venus, while the   
          nearly-as- bright planet Jupiter is to the left. Please see the   
                    explanation for more detailed information.

      Explanation: What wonders appear when the Moon blocks the Sun? For many   
      eager observers of MondayCÇÖs total eclipse of the Sun, the suddenly dark   
      sky included the expected corona and two (perhaps surprise) planets:   
      Venus and Jupiter. Normally, in recent days, Venus is visible only in   
      the morning when the Sun and Jupiter are below the horizon, while   
      Jupiter appears bright only in the evening. On Monday, though, for   
      well-placed observers, both planets became easily visible during the   
      day right in line with the totally eclipsed Sun. This line was captured   
      Monday afternoon in the featured image from Mount Nebo, Arkansas, USA,   
      along with a line of curious observers CÇö and a picturesque tree.
