It won\u2019t happen again until 2114, nearly a century later.<\/p>\n<p>Source: Unsplash<\/p>\n<p>In other words, you won\u2019t survive to witness another eclipse like this one.<\/p>\n<p>Since this total solar eclipse has been dubbed the \u201cGreat North African Eclipse,\u201d you know when it will occur, but you can guess where you would go for the best view.<\/p>\n<p>The finest place to see this phenomenon is in Luxor, Egypt, where the totality will be visible for the longest period of time. In fact, Luxor is going to be the best place to see it in the globe.<\/p>\n<p>If you are unable to visit, it may still be seen from a number of locations in North Africa and some regions of Southern Europe, including Gibraltar.<\/p>\n<p>Tens of millions of people live within the eclipse\u2019s line of totality, and many of them will have the pristine sky necessary to see it in its best light.<\/p>\n<p>A partial solar eclipse, which will be spectacular but not quite as magnificent as witnessing the Great North African Eclipse in its entirety, will bring darkness to many other places of the earth.<\/p>\n<p>The best site to observe a total eclipse is normally at sea because the majority of our globe is made of water. The movements of the universe don\u2019t care where humans live, but this eclipse has the distinction of being the largest to occur on land in almost a century.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, it will be among the longest total eclipses ever observed.<\/p>\n<p>According to meteorologist Jean Meeus\u2019 research, the longest complete eclipse that may occur is seven minutes and thirty-one seconds, therefore the fact that this one only lasted a minute under is extremely remarkable.<\/p>\n<p>Other total solar eclipses are scheduled for 2026 and 2028, although they are not nearly as long as this one, and nothing will be seen until the following century.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A total solar eclipse is an occurrence that will occur in a few years and won\u2019t be witnessed for another hundred years.
