National Geographic captured one of the first images of the “Great American Eclipse” before it crossed the U.S. by partnering with Airbnb. Early morning, one winner and guest of Airbnb’s Night At Solar Eclipse contest boarded a private jet and headed for the Oregon coastline to capture one of the first glimpses of the total solar eclipse.
