Total solar eclipse: Enjoyed by millions of people in the USA, Mexico, Canada (video-photos)

When will we see a similar phenomenon in Europe and Greece

Newsroom April 9 04:22

Over 35 million people in the central and eastern United States, residents and visitors alike, enjoyed one of the most beautiful celestial phenomena on Monday (8/4): the total solar eclipse.

Along with them, millions of others in Mexico and Canada, as well as those who watched it online.

The Mexican resort of Mazatlán on the Pacific coast was the first popular observation location for the phenomenon.

Thousands of people had gathered along the beachfront road, wearing special glasses, while others were on loungers.

When will the U.S. see an eclipse again?

The next major eclipse visible from the U.S. will be on August 22, 2044, only from North and South Dakota and northern Canada.

However, almost a year later, on August 12, 2045, the path of a total eclipse will cross the U.S. from California to Florida.

When will we see an eclipse in Europe and Greece?

Here in Europe, we will see a total eclipse on August 12, 2026. It will be visible in Russia, Iceland, Spain, and Portugal (reaching 90% coverage in the UK, for example) as the path passes over the Atlantic Ocean.


In Greece, we will be quite close to a total eclipse in 2027 (total in North Africa), while we will see an annular (not total) eclipse on June 1, 2030. We will wait another 30 years for a total eclipse, which will be fully visible in Cyprus, and almost as long for the April 2088 total eclipse with a path passing over Greece.
