As you may have heard, there was an interesting "ring of fire" eclipse yesterday but, unfortunately, it was only visible in some parts of the world, eastern Asia and North America.

Of course, even if you haven't been able to see it in person, the web is filled with photos or videos of the event, some quite spectacular.

But little did you know that you missed out not only on an interesting astronomical event, but also on Google's doodle celebrating the occasion.

The doodle only ran in Japan so most people probably missed it, but it's an interesting doodle, so here's your chance of enjoying it, above.

It's hardly the first eclipse doodle and it probably won't be the last. Last year, for the total lunar eclipse, Google used live images of the event as it unfolded in the doodle.
