The sun will vanish over Europe in a rare total solar eclipse: Watch live
www.sciencedaily.com
A total solar eclipse will plunge parts of Europe into darkness on August 12, 2026, with Spain offering some of the best views. ESA will livestream the spectacle from the Javalambre Observatory, combining telescope feeds, drone footage, and expert commentary. At 20:31 CEST, the observatory will experience 1 minute and 21 seconds of totality, revealing the Sun’s normally hidden outer atmosphere.

Article says the best view will be in Spain, but that’s unintended irony since the sun has already disappeared there due to wildfire smoke :(.

    I love how what once was seen as an omen of divine displeasure is now a curiosity with the chance of mild relief. “Thanks god, if you could keep making that angry face for another nine weeks please?”
