The path of <strong>totality</strong> — the narrow track where the moon fully covers the sun — runs through sparsely populated polar geography and a short list of inhabited highlights: portions of <strong>northern Greenland</strong>, <strong>western Iceland</strong>, and <strong>northern Spain</strong>. It is <strong>not</strong> a Georgia event.</p>
