AGP Executive Report
Last update: 9 hours agoSpace & Science: NASA is sending a WB-57 high-altitude aircraft from Keflavik to “chase” the Aug 12 total solar eclipse, aiming to extend totality and capture rapid, multi-wavelength views of the Sun’s corona and solar activity as the shadow races across Greenland and the North Atlantic. Eclipse Travel (Greenland in the spotlight): The eclipse path includes Greenland, Iceland and northern Spain, with millions set for partial views and dedicated eclipse chasers planning cruises and remote viewing spots. Safety & Tech for Skywatchers: Experts stress you must use certified eclipse glasses (not regular sunglasses), and a free macOS tool called Umbra is being promoted to automate multi-camera eclipse shooting during totality. Entertainment & Culture: The Red Arrows have cancelled several UK performances after being stranded in Canada on their way to Greenland and Iceland—while film fans get a Marvel Easter-egg buzz as Skaar’s image resurfaces in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Greenland News Angle: A viral clip from Ilulissat shows a massive iceberg capsizing near the icefjord, sending waves toward shore and underlining how fast Greenland’s landscape can shift.
