A total eclipse the sun can be quite frightening, turning day into night in a spectacular fashion. However" as the Moon appears to eat the sun,some incredibly beautiful " special effects" take place.
Just before the sun disappears,a brilliant bright spot can be seen on the edge of the Moon, a little like a diamind on a ring.
this is caused by the last fingers of the sun's light filtering through valleys and mountain ranges on the Moon. sometimes the bright spot can appear as an arc of glowing pearls, an effect known as Bailey's Beads.
