If you pan to the right, it shows that it actually starts in a bit of russia

  That area (Taymyr Peninsula) looks crazy remote and inaccessible. It would be wild to be there, let alone experience an eclipse there. I think it might even be illegal to do so without a permit, though I'm also curious what enforcement looks like in an area so far from what we think of as normal infrastructure.

    > I think it might even be illegal to do so without a permit Do what, just visit? Seems to be public land as far as I can see, and very empty on top of that, I don't think anyone would mind you being there to see an eclipse :)

    It still started in russia though, even if nobody was there to see it

      Oh, sure, this is just my rumination on experiencing something that seems so existential in such a solitary place.
