Rare total eclipse will turn daytime into darkness in parts of Saudi Arabia in August 2027

On August 2, 2027, a rare and long total solar eclipse will occur, making it one of the most prominent astronomical events of the 21st century. Large areas of western and southern Saudi Arabia are expected to witness the phenomenon for up to 6 minutes in Abha and 5 minutes and 50 seconds in Jeddah, offering a unique opportunity to study the solar corona. The skies over these regions will turn temporarily dark, with the appearance of the solar halo, stars, and planets that can only be seen during a total eclipse. Safety precautions using special glasses are recommended. The eclipse will begin along the Red Sea coast and pass through numerous cities. This event presents an important chance to promote awareness of astronomy and safe observation practices.
