Brace for 2027: a six-minute solar eclipse across Africa, Europe and the Middle East
TL;DR
NASA says the Aug. 2, 2027 total solar eclipse will deliver up to six minutes and 23 seconds of totality—the longest in decades and the longest until 2114—visible across Africa, Europe, and the Middle East; most of the U.S. won’t see it, with only a partial view possible in parts of Maine early on Aug. 2, 2027.
