Morocco and Spain Collaborate on Eclipse Study
On August 12th, a total solar eclipse will occur during an important scientific event organized through a collaboration between Morocco and Spain. The focus will be on studying the Sun's outer corona (the outer layer that appears around the Sun’s disk during a total eclipse). The Canary Islands Institute and Mohamed VI Polytechnic University are involved in setting up a network of small telescopes to observe and record changes in the Sun’s corona during the eclipse, with the aim of understanding how solar storms form and their impact on satellites and communication networks. The main phase of this project will take place in Morocco on August 2nd, 2027, when the eclipse will last more than four minutes—providing an ideal opportunity to study the phenomenon in greater detail. Scientists hope that the results of this research will help explain the temperature differences between the Sun’s corona and its surface, contributing to a better understanding of the intense heat observed in the corona.
