NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) has moved into its second eclipse season of 2012.  This movie from SDO shows Earth moving across the sun from 2:25 to 3:25 a.m. EDT on Sept. 6, 2012. The boundaries of the shadow of Earth on the sun are not perfectly sharp since SDO can see some light from the sun coming through Earth's atmosphere.
