Eclipse of the Heart<\/h1>\n

This week, we’re looking up at the moon, sun and stars<\/strong> as we wait for the solar eclipse<\/strong> on August 12. And speaking of stars and famous eclipses, we want to pay homage to the stellar Bonnie Tyler<\/strong>, who left us last month\u00a0\u2b50\ud83c\udf11\ud83d\udc94<\/p>\n

Did you know that helium was discovered by a Frenchman thanks to a solar eclipse? In 1868, while observing the solar spectrum during an eclipse in India, French astronomer Pierre-Jules-C\u00e9sar Janssen<\/strong> spotted a bright yellow line that turned out to be a chemical element totally unknown on Earth at the time. He named it helium<\/strong> after the Greek word for the Sun, helios<\/em>.\u00a0\ud83c\udf1e<\/p>\n

If you’re in France on 12 August 2026<\/strong>, you’ll be able to experience Europe’s first total solar eclipse since 1999<\/strong>. While the path of 100% totality passes over Spain, mainland France will witness a spectacular, deep partial eclipse, with an obscuration varying from 92.2% in Paris to a near-total 99.5% in southern border cities like Biarritz and Perpignan. Vive l’\u00e9clipse solaire\u00a0!<\/em> \ud83d\ude0e<\/p>\n

Alors, sans plus attendre<\/em>, go outside, put on your protective glasses and look up to admire all the bright French KwizIQ content we’ve selected for you!\u00a0\ud83d\udd76\ufe0f\u2600\ufe0f<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
