A Partial Solar Eclipse over Iceland

Explanation:
What if the Sun and Moon rose together? That happened yesterday over some northern parts of planet Earth as a partial solar eclipse occurred shortly after sunrise. Regions that experienced the Moon blocking part of the Sun included northeastern parts of North America and northwestern parts of Europe, Asia, and Africa. The featured image was captured yesterday over the Grábrók volcanic crater in Iceland where much of the Sun became momentarily hidden behind the Moon. The image was taken through a cloudy sky but so well planned that the photographer's friend appeared to be pulling the Sun out from behind the Moon. No part of the Earth experienced a total solar eclipse this time. In the distant past, some of humanity was so surprised when an eclipse occurred that ongoing battles suddenly stopped. Today, eclipses are not a surprise and are predicted with an accuracy of seconds.

Eclipse Heat Map, 5000 Years

It's evident from the heatmap that a total solar eclipse can happen absolutely anywhere on Earth. In fact, there isn't a single pixel in the map that isn't visited by at least one eclipse – not a single goose egg in any of the 14.6 million points sampled by the map.

Not sure when/where I'll get to see one again. It was so magical I feel compelled to try.

A little tempted to try for Iceland or Spain next year. Or maybe Gibraltar or North Africa in 2027. I've always wanted to see Morocco or Tunisia, so perhaps one of those would work out well.

And Japan in 2035 feels like a must-do. I have no excuse with 10yrs of time to prep and save for the experience.

Seeing notes in my stream about the #Eclipse one year ago today.

I'm of two minds about "life-changing events." I find that little day-to-day things can be life changing; a brief chat with someone can be a thing you obsess about for years. A random Tuesday observation can stick with you for a lifetime.

But in a more monumental way, going to Montreal, just a couple of hours away, for the Eclipse last year, and seeing it in a park with a few hundred ppl was truly a life-changing experience.

Éclipse solaire partielle au-dessus de l’Islande - Astronomy Picture of the Day - 30/03/2025

L’image présentée a été prise hier au-dessus du cratère volcanique de Grábrók en Islande, où une grande partie du Soleil s’est momentanément cachée derrière la Lune. L’image a été prise à travers un ciel nuageux mais si bien planifiée que l’ami du photographe semble tirer le Soleil...
