With the\u00a0April 8 total solar eclipse<\/a>\u00a0over, North America has exactly eight years, 11 months and 22 days to wait until its next one. <\/p>\n

Although total solar eclipses occur in the same location only every 375 years or so, they are not rare. In fact, they happen on our planet about once every 18 months, on average.<\/p>\n

In the next decade, seven total solar eclipses will occur on\u00a0Earth<\/a>, plunging countries as diverse as Australia, Egypt, Spain and Sudan under the central shadow of the\u00a0moon<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The first of these will be on Aug. 12, 2026, and the last will be on March 20, 2034, with maximum durations of totality ranging from 1 minute, 8 seconds to 6 minutes, 23 seconds.<\/p>\n

Here are the important details about where, when and how to experience a total\u00a0solar eclipse<\/a>\u00a0in the next decade.<\/p>\n

1. Total solar eclipse of 2026<\/h2>\n

Maximum duration of totality:<\/strong>\u00a02 minutes, 18 seconds<\/p>\n

Europe\u2019s first total solar eclipse for 27 years will coincide with the peak of the annual\u00a0Perseid meteor shower<\/a>. The path of totality will pass over Greenland, western Iceland and northern Spain. The place to experience maximum totality will be on a cruise ship off the coast of Reykjavik, Iceland. The chances of a clear sky are much higher in northern Spain, but the eclipse will be much lower, so sight lines will be key. From the Spanish island of Mallorca, it will even be possible to see a \u201csunset totality\u201d featuring a golden corona (as long as there are clear skies).<\/p>\n

2. Total solar eclipse of 2027<\/h2>\n

Saros 136 is our era\u2019s preeminent family of total solar eclipses. It repeats every 18 years, 11 days and eight hours. The next one is on Aug. 2, 2027, with Luxor, Egypt, destined for a clear view of 6 minutes, 23 seconds of totality. Other options include southern Spain; Gibraltar; Tangier, Morocco; Tunisia\u2019s Kerkennah Islands; and Jeddah and Mecca, Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n

However, all eyes will be on Luxor, where an eclipsed\u00a0sun<\/a>\u00a0will be visible from the Valley of the Kings, Karnak, Luxor Temple, the Colossi of Memnon and the Temple of Hatshepsut. \u00a0A whopping 89 million people will experience totality in 2027 \u2014\u00a0far more than witnessed the 2024 total solar eclipse in North America<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Where:<\/strong>\u00a0Christmas Island, Cocos Islands, Australia and New Zealand<\/p>\n

Maximum duration of totality:<\/strong>\u00a05 minutes, 10 seconds<\/p>\n

This solar eclipse \u2014 the second of five in 15 years for Australia \u2014 will be visible from remote locations such as the Bungle Bungles and Karlu Karlu (Devils Marbles) in Western Australia and the Northern Territory, respectively, as well as Dubbo, the Blue Mountains and Sydney, where observers will get to witness 3 minutes, 48 seconds of totality. The South Island of New Zealand \u2014 including Milford Sound, Queenstown and Dunedin \u2014 will also experience totality close to sunset.<\/p>\n

4. Total solar eclipse of 2030<\/h2>\n

The Spitzkoppe is a group of bald granite peaks or inselbergs located between Usakos and Swakopmund in the Namib desert of Namibia. The granite is more than 120 million years old and the highest outcrop rises about 1,728 metres (5,669 ft) above sea level.<\/p>\n

Total solar eclipse of 2030<\/p>\n

When:<\/strong>\u00a0Monday, Nov. 25, 2030<\/p>\n

Where:<\/strong>\u00a0Namibia, Botswana, South Africa, Lesotho and Australia<\/p>\n

Maximum duration of totality:<\/strong>\u00a03 minutes, 44 seconds<\/p>\n

This eclipse will occur mostly at sea, but it will cross almost 11 million people on two continents. Totality will occur shortly after sunrise from Namibia\u2019s Skeleton Coast before moving across Botswana to Durban on the east coast of South Africa. The path of totality will then stretch across a remote part of the Indian Ocean before a low-setting eclipsed sunset is seen from South Australia and the outback of New South Wales and Queensland. It\u2019s the perfect opportunity to explore Namibia or take part in a remote safari adventure in Botswana.<\/p>\n

5. Hybrid total-annular solar eclipse of 2031<\/h2>\n

Hybrid total-annular solar eclipse of 2031<\/p>\n

When:<\/strong>\u00a0Friday, Nov. 14, 2031<\/p>\n

Where:<\/strong>\u00a0Cruise ship from Hawaii<\/p>\n

Maximum duration of totality:\u00a0<\/strong>1 minute, 8 seconds<\/p>\n

For many people, this remote and short eclipse might not be worth the effort. After all, a brief totality during this very remote eclipse will be visible only from inside a narrow path in the North Pacific Ocean, making a cruise ship from Hawaii the most likely way to experience it.<\/p>\n

But this is the most dramatic type of eclipse \u2014 a hybrid. A hybrid eclipse, which occurs only seven times in the 21st century, combines an annular (or \u201cring of fire\u201d) solar eclipse and a total solar eclipse. However, the short duration and small shadow are crucial, with informed eclipse chasers destined to enjoy an extended display of\u00a0Baily\u2019s beads and a lingering diamond ring<\/a>\u00a0before and after totality. A \u201cring of fire\u201d will be visible from the coast of Panama for 25 seconds.<\/p>\n

6. Total solar eclipse of 2033<\/h2>\n

Where:<\/strong>\u00a0Russia and the U.S. (Alaska)<\/p>\n

Maximum duration of totality:<\/strong>\u00a02 minutes, 37 seconds<\/p>\n

This is the next total solar eclipse for North America. Because it occurs close to the spring equinox, it will be a great opportunity to explore Alaska during peak\u00a0northern lights<\/a>\u00a0viewing season. An eclipsed sun as low as 8 degrees above the eastern horizon will be seen from locations such as Utqiagvik (Barrow), Sagavanirktok (Prudhoe Bay), Kotzebue and Nome.<\/p>\n

7. Total solar eclipse of 2034<\/h2>\n

Maximum duration of totality:<\/strong>\u00a04 minutes, 9 seconds<\/p>\n

If you want a total solar eclipse to take you off the beaten path, this eclipse will suit you. The path of totality will envelope 109 million people in 13 countries in Central Africa and South Asia. Chief viewing locations will include the Red Sea Coast, in Egypt; the UNESCO World Heritage site of Persepolis, in Iran; and Leh, in the Indian Himalayas.<\/p>
