    It looks more like a solar eclipse in that panel than a lunar eclipse. So I was wondering if it’s possible to have a solar eclipse at midnight. And yes it is!

    This eclipse will start only a few hours after the northern solstice and most of the path will go across areas with midnight sun

      That one is only going to be an annular eclipse, unfortunately. That’s basically just a fancy partial eclipse, and far from a total eclipse.

        Ah in which case there’s this one where you might be able to see a total eclipse from a midnight sun AND the aurora borealis! (in certain areas of northern Russia)
