Those within the path of totality had the rare chance to glimpse the Sun\u2019s active outer atmosphere, or <a href=\"https:\/\/spaceplace.nasa.gov\/sun-corona\/en\/\" rel=\"noopener\">corona<\/a>, during the short time the Moon blocked the Sun.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This composite photo was taken before, during, and after the total eclipse from a field of appropriately themed flowers in San Mill\u00e1n de los Caballeros, a town about 40 kilometers (25 miles) south of Le\u00f3n in northwestern Spain. Along with parts of Greenland and Iceland, Northern Spain was one of the <a href=\"https:\/\/science.nasa.gov\/earth\/earth-observatory\/stops-along-the-path-of-totality\/\" rel=\"noopener\">few places<\/a> on land that fell within this eclipse\u2019s path of totality.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sunset was approaching when the Moon\u2019s shadow, or umbra, swept across Spain. In Le\u00f3n, the <a href=\"https:\/\/science.nasa.gov\/eclipses\/future-eclipses\/total-solar-eclipse-on-august-12-2026\/\" rel=\"noopener\">partial eclipse began<\/a> at 7:32 p.m. and ended at 9:22 p.m. local time, just minutes before the Sun dipped below the horizon. Totality lasted about two minutes, starting at 8:28 p.m. Farther east in Spain, the Sun set before the eclipse ended.<\/p>\n<div class=\"hds-media hds-module wp-block-image\">\n<div class=\"margin-left-auto margin-right-auto nasa-block-align-wide\">\n<div class=\"hds-media-wrapper margin-left-auto margin-right-auto\">\n<figure class=\"hds-media-inner hds-cover-wrapper hds-media-ratio-fit \"><a href=\"https:\/\/assets.science.nasa.gov\/dynamicimage\/assets\/science\/esd\/eo\/images\/iotd\/2026\/a-sunflower's-view-of-totality\/55459647856_0fe6b58c0e_o.jpg?w=5673&#038;h=3191&#038;fit=clip&#038;crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"5673\" height=\"3191\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.science.nasa.gov\/dynamicimage\/assets\/science\/esd\/eo\/images\/iotd\/2026\/a-sunflower's-view-of-totality\/55459647856_0fe6b58c0e_o.jpg?w=5673&#038;h=3191&#038;fit=clip&#038;crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint\" class=\"attachment-2048x2048 size-2048x2048\" alt=\"A ring of bright light shines from behind the Moon, which appears as a black circle, during a total solar eclipse.\" block_context=\"nasa-block\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets.science.nasa.gov\/dynamicimage\/assets\/science\/esd\/eo\/images\/iotd\/2026\/a-sunflower's-view-of-totality\/55459647856_0fe6b58c0e_o.jpg?w=5673&#038;h=3191&#038;fit=crop&#038;crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 5673w, https:\/\/assets.science.nasa.gov\/dynamicimage\/assets\/science\/esd\/eo\/images\/iotd\/2026\/a-sunflower's-view-of-totality\/55459647856_0fe6b58c0e_o.jpg?w=300&#038;h=169&#038;fit=crop&#038;crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 300w, https:\/\/assets.science.nasa.gov\/dynamicimage\/assets\/science\/esd\/eo\/images\/iotd\/2026\/a-sunflower's-view-of-totality\/55459647856_0fe6b58c0e_o.jpg?w=768&#038;h=432&#038;fit=crop&#038;crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 768w, https:\/\/assets.science.nasa.gov\/dynamicimage\/assets\/science\/esd\/eo\/images\/iotd\/2026\/a-sunflower's-view-of-totality\/55459647856_0fe6b58c0e_o.jpg?w=1024&#038;h=576&#038;fit=crop&#038;crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 1024w, https:\/\/assets.science.nasa.gov\/dynamicimage\/assets\/science\/esd\/eo\/images\/iotd\/2026\/a-sunflower's-view-of-totality\/55459647856_0fe6b58c0e_o.jpg?w=1536&#038;h=864&#038;fit=crop&#038;crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 1536w, https:\/\/assets.science.nasa.gov\/dynamicimage\/assets\/science\/esd\/eo\/images\/iotd\/2026\/a-sunflower's-view-of-totality\/55459647856_0fe6b58c0e_o.jpg?w=2048&#038;h=1152&#038;fit=crop&#038;crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 2048w, https:\/\/assets.science.nasa.gov\/dynamicimage\/assets\/science\/esd\/eo\/images\/iotd\/2026\/a-sunflower's-view-of-totality\/55459647856_0fe6b58c0e_o.jpg?w=400&#038;h=225&#038;fit=crop&#038;crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 400w, https:\/\/assets.science.nasa.gov\/dynamicimage\/assets\/science\/esd\/eo\/images\/iotd\/2026\/a-sunflower's-view-of-totality\/55459647856_0fe6b58c0e_o.jpg?w=600&#038;h=337&#038;fit=crop&#038;crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 600w, https:\/\/assets.science.nasa.gov\/dynamicimage\/assets\/science\/esd\/eo\/images\/iotd\/2026\/a-sunflower's-view-of-totality\/55459647856_0fe6b58c0e_o.jpg?w=900&#038;h=506&#038;fit=crop&#038;crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 900w, https:\/\/assets.science.nasa.gov\/dynamicimage\/assets\/science\/esd\/eo\/images\/iotd\/2026\/a-sunflower's-view-of-totality\/55459647856_0fe6b58c0e_o.jpg?w=1200&#038;h=675&#038;fit=crop&#038;crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 1200w, https:\/\/assets.science.nasa.gov\/dynamicimage\/assets\/science\/esd\/eo\/images\/iotd\/2026\/a-sunflower's-view-of-totality\/55459647856_0fe6b58c0e_o.jpg?w=2000&#038;h=1125&#038;fit=crop&#038;crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 5673px) 100vw, 5673px\"><\/a><\/figure><figcaption class=\"hds-caption padding-y-2\">\n<div class=\"hds-caption-text p-sm margin-0\">A total solar eclipse is seen from San Mill\u00e1n de los Caballeros, Spain, on August 12, 2026.<\/div>\n<div class=\"hds-credits\"><a href=\"https:\/\/images.nasa.gov\/details\/NHQ202608120203\" rel=\"noopener\">NASA\/Bill Ingalls<\/a><\/div>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the photo above, taken during totality, a glowing loop of plasma called a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/image-article\/what-solar-prominence\/\" rel=\"noopener\">solar prominence<\/a>\u00a0is visible extending into the corona on the left.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/science.nasa.gov\/learn\/heat\/big-ideas\/big-idea-3-1\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Plasma<\/a>, a super-hot gas composed mostly of ionized hydrogen and helium, flows along the tangled and twisted structure of the Sun\u2019s magnetic fields. Solar prominences, which can measure many times higher than Earth is wide, are sometimes visible to the naked eye during eclipses.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Solar eclipses offer NASA the opportunity to get a different look at the Sun and our own atmosphere.
