  • A composite of six images captured from Seattle, Washington, shows the progression of the lunar eclipse on December 10, 2011. Captured over a one-hour period, the composite shows the Earth gradually passing between the sun and the moon. The eclipse was visible from eastern Europe to the western United States and is the last total lunar eclipse until April 15, 2014.

  • A composite of six images shows the progression of the annular solar eclipse of May 20, 2012 as viewed from Lassen Volcanic National Park in California. The Moon's distance from Earth varies, and annular solar eclipses occur when the Moon is relatively far from Earth. The Moon appears smaller in the sky and therefore is not able to block the entire Sun. At the peak of this eclipse, the Moon blocked 95 percent of the Sun. This image sequence begins at the top left. The black marks on some of the Sun images are sunspots.

  • Several seabirds fly over the Atlantic Ocean as the last light of day illuminates Snæfellsjökull, a glacier-covered stratovolcano in western Iceland. Located on the Snæfellsnes peninsula, Snæfellsjökull is 1,446 meters (4,744 feet) tall. Stratovolcanoes, also known as composite volcanoes, are typically cone-shaped and made up of many layers from many volcanic eruptions. Snæfellsjökull is approximately 700,000 years old and is estimated to have last erupted in 200 A.D. Snæfellsjökull is an Icelandic word meaning "snowy mountain glacier."

  • An iceberg carries a rock though Jökulsárlón, Iceland's glacial lagoon. Glaciers have been known to carry rocks great distances. Rocks fall onto glaciers, which move slowly down mountains. When the glacier melts so much that it can no longer support the rock, the rock is dropped and it becomes known as a glacial erratic. The term referrs to rocks that are different in size, shape or composition from other rocks around them.
