How to See the Epic 6-Minute Total Solar Eclipse in 2027
A rare and extraordinary celestial event is coming our way – a 6-minute total solar eclipse on August 2, 2027. This unprecedented phenomenon will take place across multiple continents, but unfortunately for North Americans, it won’t be visible from this side of the world.
However, astronomy enthusiasts and thrill-seekers alike can still experience this incredible event in some parts of Europe, Africa, and Asia. The path of totality stretches approximately 160 miles wide and covers three continents: North Atlantic Ocean, Southern Europe, and parts of Africa.
The most significant aspect of this eclipse is its duration – an unprecedented six minutes and twenty seconds. This prolonged exposure will give observers the chance to experience a once-in-a-lifetime event without any compromises on visibility.
