About Total Solar Eclipse

A total solar eclipse will occur on Monday, August 2, 2027. It will be visible from Greenland, Iceland, Spain, and parts of Portugal and Russia.

History & Significance

A total solar eclipse occurs when the moon completely blocks the sun's disk, revealing the sun's corona. The 2026 eclipse path of totality will cross the Arctic, Atlantic Ocean, and parts of Europe. It will be the first total solar eclipse visible from Europe since the 1999 eclipse.

When and How to See Total Solar Eclipse

Astronomical events follow precise, predictable celestial mechanics — the alignment of the Sun, Earth, and Moon, or Earth's position in its orbit. That predictability is what lets Total Solar Eclipse 2027 be calculated to the exact date and time years in advance.

Many of these events reward a little preparation: a clear sky, a dark spot away from city lights, and good timing. Eclipses and meteor showers are visible only from certain regions or at certain hours, so it is worth checking visibility for your location. A countdown ensures you set aside the evening before the moment passes — some of these events will not repeat for years.
