A rare solar eclipse occurred on Thursday where the moon covered about 75 percent of the sun, making the sun look like a crescent sun.

A solar eclipse of this magnitude is very rare. It's happened just twice in the New York region in the last 150 years, in Sept. 1875 and October 1959, officials say.
