A new photo published by NASA, in which we see a large portion of the American continent covered by the shadow of the Moon, has fascinated Internet users since Tuesday.

The photo, captured by a satellite during the annular solar eclipse of October 14, was shared by the American agency on the social network X. We see the silhouette of the star emerging above Texas.

“About 1.5 million miles from Earth, the Moon’s shadow covered southeast Texas,” NASA explains in its tweet.

An annular eclipse, unlike a total solar eclipse, occurs when the Moon is too far from the Sun to block its light, according to NASA. The star follows an elliptical orbit around the Earth, and the Moon was at the farthest point from the Sun when the phenomenon occurred. The passage of the Moon creates what is called a ring of fire.

NASA claimed that the celestial spectacle was partially visible across the United States, Mexico as well as several South American states. People who were in the path of the Moon were able to get a better view of the phenomenon. It is this point that the shadow of the Moon covers.

The next annular eclipse will take place on June 21, 2039. However, a total eclipse will be visible in the American sky on April 8, 2024.

Zotac launched this Wednesday (18) a mini PC that stands out not only for its portable construction and balanced specifications, but also for being the first to come equipped with AirJet solid-state active cooling, a technology presented by the company during Computex 2023, event held in Taiwan.

With dimensions of just 27.5 x 41.5 x 2.8 mm and weighing 9 grams, the device (ZBOX PI430AJ) is equipped with the Intel Core i3 processor paired with 8 GB of RAM (LPDDR5). It supports 4K image resolution at 60 fps, supporting up to three monitors with these technical specifications.

As it does not have coolers or moving parts, the mini PC is extremely silent and can be used without disturbing the user in environments with little noise. Connectivity includes a USB Type-C port, two USB 3.2 Type-A ports, HDMI and DisplayPort video outputs, and a Gigabit LAN port for connecting an Ethernet cable, as well as Bluetooth 5.2 and Wi-Fi 6.

This model also has an M.2 NVMe PCIe 3.0 SSD slot, enabling hardware upgrades. The big highlight is the AirJet, which uses air flow to dissipate heat.

“Frore System’s AirJet Active Cooling Chip is the world’s first solid-state chip dedicated to rapid heat dissipation. The high-frequency vibrations of the on-chip membranes facilitate rapid airflow, removing substantial amounts of heat while being lighter , silent and much thinner than traditional fans.”, said Zotac.

This mini PC comes with a suggested price of US$500, around R$2,530 in direct conversion. It is listed on the manufacturer’s official website, but there is no information regarding availability yet. It is expected that more details will be revealed in the coming weeks, confirming the markets in which the product will be announced.
