Last year's solar eclipse was the most viewed in history and, as expected, millions of people recorded the moment in the various places where it could be seen. This even included a car equipped with Google Street View cameras that was circulating in Saint Louis, Missouri.

Disclosing the curious fact was Michael Kentrianakis, a member of the Solar Eclipses Task Force of the American Society of Astronomy, who spoke about it during an annual area forum. “It seems that these Google vans that take pictures of every street on the planet never stop. Not overnight from a total solar eclipse, ”he said in a Facebook post.

Walking around the city, you can see a lot of people outside the houses looking at the sky throughout the event. Some took chairs to the backyards and turned the event into a big meeting with neighbors and relatives. You can also see the streetlight lights only turning on during the dark. The exact moment the eclipse begins was recorded when the car passed the height of 2000 McKelvey Hill Dr. You can have a look at the map attached below.
