Unlike the dinosaur, when the lady managed to put on her glasses, the eclipse was no longer there. Bad luck. A hundred years since the last solar eclipse is nothing, woman. However, others, at 7:15 p.m., were already seeing it and saying to each other: “look, there is already a spot…

Neither the racket eclipse, despite it being true that perhaps it has gotten a bit out of hand for all of us, nor the fomo eclipse, although it is also true that hundreds of thousands of people all over Spain have ended up jumping on the bandwagon out of fear of looking like…

All the expectations, curiosity, and hyperventilation culminated in what everyone expected: absolute darkness. There were no surprises. For 4 hours and 24 minutes, the eclipse traveled across the Earth from when it emerged over the Bering Sea until it disappeared, at 21:58, in the Atlantic Ocean. But it only took eight minutes of the lunar shadow’s path across the entire country for millions of viewers to stop their lives to watch the first total solar eclipse visible from Spain in the last hundred years.

The day has finally arrived. The total solar eclipse, the first in the Iberian Peninsula and the Balearic Islands in over 100 years, will test mobility on roads and highways this afternoon, with a focus on the AP-7, and the social response to an astronomical phenomenon turned into a great spectacle that almost no one wants to miss. Without recent precedents and few possible comparisons, today one of the great unknowns will be answered: will there be massive movements, seeking the best observation point in the path of totality, from Galicia to Mallorca, where the Moon will completely cover the Sun?
