Future Total Solar Eclipses
We also include eclipses that are annular—where the Moon is directly in front of the Sun, but doesn’t fully cover it—leaving a ring of light around the dark Moon’s edges)

A table titled “Future Total Solar Eclipses” with three columns and twenty rows. The first row is a header row and labels each column “Date”, “Type of Eclipse”, and “Location on Earth footnote: Remember that a total or annular eclipse is only visible on a narrow track. The same eclipse will be partial over a much larger area, but partial eclipses are not as spectacular as total ones.”. The fifteenth row reads “February 17, 2026”, “Annular”, “Only in Antarctica”. The sixteenth row reads “August 12, 2026”, “Total”, “Greenland, Iceland, Spain”. The seventeenth row reads “February 6, 2027”, “Annular”, “S Pacific, Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, S Atlantic”. The eighteenth row reads “August 2, 2027”, “Total”, “Spain, Morocco, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Arabian Sea”. The nineteenth row reads “January 26, 2028”, “Annular”, “Ecuador, Peru, Brazil, North Atlantic Ocean, Portugal, Spain”. The twentieth row reads “July 22, 2028”, “Total”, “Indian Ocean, Australia, New Zealand, South Pacific Ocean”.
