Something strange just happened in orbit. On Sept. 21st, NOAA\u2019s CCOR-1 coronagraph onboard the GOES-19 satellite recorded what appears to be the first natural solar eclipse ever observed from space. <\/p>\n

In the clip, the Moon doesn\u2019t glide smoothly across the Sun as expected \u2014 instead, it zig-zags in a bizarre path, almost as if something was tugging at it. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Coincidence? According to NASA: it could be linked to a \u201cyaw flip maneuver\u201d scheduled for the next day, but the timing has sparked questions. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Even weirder: during the eclipse, the Moon only covered the Sun\u2019s bright disk, yet the entire glowing corona suddenly vanished and everything went just black. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
But NASA explained it away as a \u201cquirk of image processing,\u201d where the software subtracted too much light and erased the corona. But for many skywatchers, it looks like more than just a computer glitch. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
NASA, as always, gives an explanation that raises more questions than answers. The bizarre event suggests that something, whether natural or engineered, interfered. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Are they covering up the reality of what\u2019s out there? <\/div>\n
