The 2 August 2027 eclipse in Mechraa Hammadi

Mechraa Hammadi is inside the path of totality: the Sun will be completely covered for 17 s, from 08:50:35 to 08:50:52, Morocco time (GMT). Note: this is at the edge of the path. The Moon’s rugged limb shifts that edge by a kilometre or two, so totality may last a few seconds more or less, or not happen at all. The closer to the centre line, the safer and the longer.
