I watched the eclipse from Osorno La Mayor (Palencia) and it was absolutely stunning; the haze turned what would otherwise have been a silvery corona into a golden one. A solar flare (a burst of incandescent gas ejected by the Sun) was visible to the naked eye.
As for the Sonde Balloon Mission, it was a success, as the balloons launched into the stratosphere captured a unique image of the eclipse, showing the Moon’s shadow over Spain.
