4636) "Total Solar Eclipse over Eastern Greenland - A Celestial Event", Greenland (Kalaallit Nunaat): Tussass (Greenland Post) has issued a postage stamp of 34 DKK (Danish Kroners): Date/Year of Stamp issue: 12.08.2026:
What is Kalaallit Nunaat?
Kalaallit are an ethnographic group, being the largest such group in Greenland, and are concentrated in the west.
The Kalaallit are Inuit and form part of the circumpolar peoples of the Arctic. The language spoken by Inuit in Greenland is known as Kalaallisut, and in English as Greenlandic.
A Solar Eclipse:
On 12th August 2026, one of nature’s most spectacular
phenomena occured over Greenland.
A total solar eclipse will move across the
Arctic world and Eastern Greenland, in particular, will be one of the places on
the planet where the experience will be most spectacular.
This rare event is
now depicted on a new Greenlandic stamp issued on the day of the eclipse.
When the Moon passes precisely between the Earth and the
Sun - Day turns into night for a few magical minutes.
The sun’s radiant disc is
completely obscured and its outer atmosphere, the corona, appears as a luminous
wreath around the dark silhouette of the moon.
For astronomers, photographers
and nature enthusiasts, a total solar eclipse is one of the most desirable
experiences imaginable.
Eastern Greenland is an exceptional location for this
event. The region is centrally situated on the path of the eclipse and is,
therefore, expected to attract visitors from all over the world.
Here, Arctic
nature meets the dramatic transformations in the sky to create a sight that can
only be experienced few times in a lifetime.
The Postage Stamp:
- This new stamp conveys perfectly this rare combina- tion
of science, nature and experience. The design has captured the moment
when the light of the Sun is obscured by the passage of the Moon. The stamp
combines astronomical precision with a poetic expression that underscores the
almost celestial nature of the event.
- The design of the stamp invites collectors and users
alike to gaze up to the sky and commemorate a day when the forces of nature
created one of most fascinating scenes we know.
- Consequently, the stamp not only represents a memory of
an astronomical event but, also an artistic document of a moment when Greenland
stands at the centre of the world’s attention.
The Postage Stamp of 34.00 DKK
