A total solar eclipse will occur over mainland Spain for the first time in over a century on August 12, coinciding with a meteor shower and a planetary alignment. The event will begin near the North Pole and travel southward, with maximum totality lasting up to two minutes and 18 seconds near Iceland. A larger eclipse will follow in 2027, spanning from Spain to North Africa and the Middle East. While the Iberian Peninsula will experience a shorter duration of totality, regions like Dublin and Oslo will witness significant solar coverage. The event will be accompanied by additional celestial phenomena, including a meteor shower and planetary display. Scientists and enthusiasts are preparing to observe and document these rare occurrences.
