Totality on the ground for that eclipse lasted about 2 minutes. At the F-15’s top speed (~1800mph) it could have stayed in the shadow for about 15-20 minutes on an optimal trajectory.

In a breathtaking display of aviation prowess and celestial wonder, a group of F-15 fighter jets took to the skies during a solar eclipse to chase the Moon's umbra, the darkest part of its shadow.

@Habubrats71, have you heard of a corresponding SR71 tale? I would imagine a SR71 might be able to stay in the shadow for a long while (as fuel allowed).

You can be in the shadow for 3 minutes standing still, I’m sure flying supersonic you could stretch it out to about an hour.

Why don't we have a solar eclipse every month? Because the Moon's orbit is tilted over the ecliptic plane, changing the placement of its shadow. [🎞️ NASA Goddard Space Flight Center]

On April 8, parts of the U.S. will be treated to a historic total solar eclipse. 10 states and some 31 million Americans will be along the path of totality, an event which at its height will see the moon's shadow cover the sun for more than 4 minutes.

On August 11, 1999, an Air France Concorde supersonic jet performed the ultimate eclipse chase. While the eclipse lasted just 2 minutes and 23 seconds on the ground, the Concorde flew at Mach 2 along the eclipse path. Flying at 57,000 feet, high above the clouds, it intercepted the Moon's shadow and stayed inside it, allowing passengers to experience an uninterrupted totality of over five minutes. 🎥:

T-3 days until the annular solar eclipse! Got your eclipse glasses or solar viewers? Remember to look for the ISO 12312-2 certification. NASA's Kristen Erickson has a fun way to remember the numbers.

Blink and you'll miss it 🌑☀️ A total solar eclipse swept across North America yesterday, blocking out the Sun for a few moments. A total solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Sun and Earth and, for a short period, blocks the face of the Sun, save for a visible ring of light, known as the Sun’s corona. These images by the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES-16) captured the moon's shadow casted on Earth's surface moving across North America from 16:00 to 23:00 CEST. 🎥 European Space Agency NOAA Satellites
