Solar eclipse 2026 videos reveal breathtaking scenes as the Sun disappears behind the Moon

A rare total solar eclipse unfolded on August 12, 2026, as the Moon passed directly between the Sun and Earth, completely blocking the Sun's bright disc for observers along the narrow path of totality. The eclipse was visible in totality across eastern Greenland, western Iceland, northern Spain and a small part of northeastern Portugal, while much larger areas across Europe, northern North America and northwestern Africa experienced a partial solar eclipse.
