Total solar eclipse — The Grand Spanish EclipseMainland Europe’s first total solar eclipse since 1999. The path of totality begins in remote Siberia, crosses eastern Greenland and western Iceland, then sweeps over northern Spain (León, Burgos, Valladolid) before exiting near the Balearic Islands at sunset.Eye safety:never look at the partial phases without certified (ISO 12312-2) eclipse glasses or solar filters. Only during the brief seconds of totality is it safe to look with the naked eye.
