Details:
It took 0.4 seconds for the dark shadow to pass over the sun, a blink of an eye that no one would normally notice. However, this time, all kinds of telescopes and telephoto lenses were lined up in Beijing, aiming at the sun and waiting to catch the silhouette.
The shape of the silhouette is like an old-fashioned aircraft, but it is not an airplane, it is a space station orbiting the Earth at a height of 400 km, not the International Space Station, but the Tiangong Space Station of China.
The shape of the silhouette is like an old-fashioned aircraft, with the "wings" of the first half is the core module of the Tianhe launched earlier, with the "tail" of the second half is the recently launched Tianzhou II spacecraft.
