ESAWatching the eclipse from 36 000 km up 🌒 Yesterday between 20:26 and 20:34 CEST, parts of the Iberian peninsula experienced a total solar eclipse. This animation, composed of images from the Meteosat Third Generation Imager satellite (MTG-I1), caught the Moon’s dark shadow as it passed over Earth’s surface, converging with the advancing twilight shadow as dusk fell over Europe. From geostationary orbit, 36,000 km above Earth, MTG-I1 tracked the path of totality as it swept across Greenland, Iceland, Portugal and Spain. 📹 ESA/@EUMETSAT #ESA #TotalSolarEclipse #Satellite
