Thousands of people across Ireland gathered to witness a partial solar eclipse that covered more than 90% of the Sun. This celestial event drew significant public interest, with many making the effort to observe it firsthand.
In the UK, similar enthusiasm was noted as millions looked to the sky, and shops reportedly sold out of special glasses needed to view the eclipse safely. It is noted that this particular event will not occur again until the end of the century.
