Millions in UK and Europe Wowed by Once-in-a-Generation Solar Eclipse

Millions across the UK and Europe gathered to watch a once-in-a-generation solar eclipse, described as the most significant since 1999. In the UK, more than 90% of the Sun was obscured, drawing crowds to beaches, parks, and city streets as people searched for safe eclipse glasses. In parts of Spain and Iceland, observers reported rare total-eclipse darkness, with the lunar shadow turning daylight noticeably dimmer. Organisers and astronomers said preparation and proper viewing equipment were crucial for safe watching.
