Seeing totality
The nearest edge of the path of totality is about 419 km north-east of Ādīgrat.
The nearest place on this site with at least a minute of totality is Jizan, about 440 km north-east, where totality lasts 3 m 06 s.
Totality is shortest at the edges of the path and longest along the centre line, so the further inside you go, the longer it lasts.
Eye safety guide: Never look at the Sun without certified eclipse glasses, except during totality.
