FranceA total solar eclipse will occur on August 12, visible across northern Spain and parts of northern Russia, Greenland, Iceland, and Portugal. The event marks the first total solar eclipse visible in mainland Europe since 2006. During the eclipse, the Moon will fully cover the Sun, revealing its corona. In Spain, the path of totality will pass through regions affected by wildfires linked to climate change. Observers in Spain will experience up to two minutes of darkness, while partial eclipses will be visible in much of Europe, North America, and northwest Africa. Total solar eclipses are rare, with the next one in Spain expected in 2027.
