I wrote a script that downloads the live (well, every 10 minutes, with 30 minutes delay) tiles from the himawari-8 website and update my background with it. Gnome is nice enough that it refreshes the background when the configured image changes.

I'm waiting for the solar eclipse in March, it should be (indirectly) visible. http://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/solar/2016-march-9

Sounds nice, do you have it up somewhere?
Now on https://github.com/glandium/himawari-wallpaper (I'm not actually sure the eclipse will be visible on the cut I'm using)
Thanks!
