A total celestial eclipse will sweep over the UK on August 12, 2026. This will be the most striking one since 1999. Cornwall may lose almost all daylight. Experts say up to 90% of the sun will disappear. Most areas will still get a prolonged dark spell. The European Space Agency has earmarked sites in León, Spain. Total eclipse will be visible there. The UK only gets a deep fragmentary view.
