On August 12, a total solar eclipse will traverse parts of Spain, Iceland, and Greenland. To mark the event, scientific teams funded by NASA have organized a mission to observe the phenomenon using a high-altitude jet aircraft and specialized scientific balloons.
The mission aims to track the moon's shadow as it moves across the affected regions. By utilizing high-altitude equipment, researchers intend to gather data during the eclipse, leveraging the unique vantage point provided by the aircraft and balloons to conduct their study.
