Tunisia hosts partial solar eclipse observation
This article is dedicated to explaining the occurrence of the partial solar eclipse that will be witnessed in Tunisia on August 12, 2026, during which the Sun will be covered by up to 59.3% at sunset. The eclipse will begin in Tunisia at 18:40 and reach its peak around 19:11, with the Sun setting before the event concludes. This qualifies it as a "below-horizon eclipse." To organize this event, the City of Science in Tunis has arranged an astronomical exhibition in the Sidi Msharq area of Bizerte. The event includes live viewing of the eclipse using telescopes equipped with solar filters, scientific analysis of the phenomenon, as well as nighttime sky observations and warnings about the dangers of direct eye contact with the Sun without proper protection. Attendees are advised to be cautious of the risks involved in viewing directly to ensure the phenomenon is enjoyed safely.
