28 eclipses from 2025 to 2030. The next total solar eclipse is on 2 August 2027 — totality crosses Morocco, Spain, Algeria, Libya, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Somalia. Times are shown in UTC.
Never look directly at the sun during a solar eclipse without certified eclipse glasses — except during the brief total phase. Lunar eclipses are safe to watch with the naked eye.

Eclipse Predictions by Fred Espenak, NASA's GSFC — NASA Eclipse Web Site. NASA gives the time of greatest eclipse in Terrestrial Time; we show it in UTC (about 69 seconds earlier). Each eclipse also checks out against our own moon-phase calculations. All sources.
