And there it goes!
Very soon, the Moon's penumbra will lift off from the face of the Earth and beam into space again, just like on any other eclipse-less day, wrapping up yet another spectacular eclipse

From total back to annular
Right around now, the eclipse is transitioning from total to annular somewhere over the North Pacific Ocean. In just about a minute, the Earth’s
antumbra will leave the Earth as the Sun sets.
Wondering what the transition might look like? During a hybrid eclipse midway between Iceland and Greenland on October 3, 1986, astronomer Glenn Schneider took this photo from a plane flying at 12,000 meters (40,000 feet). “Clearly, this eclipse was not annular,” he said about the image. At the same time, “Some have argued it was not total as the photosphere was never instantaneously completely extincted.”
