Total Solar Eclipse August 2026 | San Antonio News

Get ready for a cosmic spectacle: on August 12, 2026, a total solar eclipse will sweep across Greenland, Iceland, northern Russia, and parts of Spain and Portugal. While most of the U.S. and Canada will experience a partial eclipse, viewers in the Northeast will get the best view. Totality brings eerie darkness, plunging temps, and a stunning glimpse of the sun’s corona — but safety first: never look directly at the sun without certified eclipse glasses. NASA’s launching science missions to study the corona from high-altitude planes and student balloons, and they’ll stream the event live online. Don’t miss it — the next total solar eclipse visible in the U.S. won’t arrive until 2044. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
