Upcoming Eclipse Events
On 6 February 2027 an annular solar eclipse sweeps across the southern Atlantic and Patagonia, producing a ring-of-fire track visible from Argentina and Chile under favourable sunrise geometry. Greatest eclipse lies over open ocean, yet motivated chasers can reach dramatic Andean and coastal sites when weather cooperates. Annularity demands ISO-certified solar filters for every second of direct viewing — never remove protection during the bright ring phase. Open this interactive map to compare towns along the narrow central path, study local contact times, and weigh which side of the Andes offers a clearer winter sky for your travel window.
The 2 August 2027 total solar eclipse is widely called the eclipse of the century: up to six minutes and twenty-three seconds of totality across Egypt, Spain, and North Africa, with Luxor on the centre line for iconic Nile-side viewing. This is long totality at workable solar altitude, so plan for heat, crowds, and hotel logistics well ahead. Open the map to see whether your shortlist sits inside the umbra, compare partial versus total coverage at Spanish coast sites, and read contact times before you commit to flights. Our Luxor guide covers temples, feluccas, and practical field hazards.
On 26 January 2028 an annular eclipse crosses from the eastern Pacific through Spain, Portugal, and the Mediterranean, finishing as a ring-of-fire sunset over northern South America. Iberian observers receive a rare winter annular eclipse at practical Sun heights — ideal for a short European trip tied to Barcelona or Andalusian coastlines, with ISO filters required throughout. Click through for the animated shadow track, annularity duration at cities you are weighing, and seasonal weather context. Pair with our European travel guide for planning across consecutive 2026–2030 eclipse seasons on both sides of the Atlantic.
The 22 July 2028 total solar eclipse traces a southern winter path across Australia, New Zealand, and the South Pacific, with greatest eclipse over open ocean southeast of Australia. Land viewers can chase lengthy afternoon totality along the Australian east coast and nearby islands — appealing if you prefer Southern Hemisphere skies and cooler winter observing temperatures. Use the interactive map to test harbour towns, beach sites, and inland fallbacks for horizon clearance. Compare centre-line totality duration against dramatic partial phases outside the umbra, then lock in flights and lodging before path-side rooms sell out.

Eclipse Observation & Expedition Guides
What happens when day becomes night during totality: the million-fold drop in light, the 360-degree eclipse horizon, stars and planets at midday, spotting Mercury, and the emotional impact of a sky transformed.
What the solar corona is, why it hides in plain sight, how it changes with the solar cycle, prominences, coronal heating, and why totality is the only naked-eye view.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I find local eclipse times for my location?
- Open the interactive map, search for your city or click your viewing spot, and Solar Eclipse Planner shows contact times, totality duration, magnitude, and whether you are inside the path.
- What is the path of totality?
- The path of totality is the narrow track where the Moon fully covers the Sun. Solar Eclipse Planner overlays totality and partial zones so you can compare sites along the track.
- How do I view a solar eclipse safely?
- Use ISO 12312-2 solar viewers whenever any part of the Sun is visible. See our safe viewing guide and NASA eclipse safety resources.
