GOES-16 eclipsed by something or just a reboot

[Capricopia]

Someone has shared pictures from GOES-16 that seem to show a gradual darkening of the sun, rather than a cut out.  See EUV GOES composite on https://www.swpc.noaa.gov/

He said "I have no idea what Eclipsed our Sun in front of our GOES-16 Satellite this morning September 1st between 4:30 and 5:30am. If it was an Eclipse, or it can be a technical issue. GOES-16 is positioned at 75.2 degrees West..."

Does anyone have any answers?

Thank you in anticipation.

I cant see it, since it refreshed.

But its most likely the Moon or a Recalibration of the Satellite
