TL;DR

NASA says a total solar eclipse on August 2, 2027 will last up to 6 minutes 23 seconds of totality, making it one of the longest in decades. The path of totality will cross parts of Africa, Europe and the Middle East, while a partial view may be seen in Maine; most of the United States will not witness the total eclipse, so observers may need to travel to the path of totality for the best view.
