Seeing totality
The nearest edge of the path of totality is about 2,197 km south-west of Bīrjand.
The nearest place on this site with at least a minute of totality is Al ‘Aqīq, about 2,224 km south-west, where totality lasts 2 m 22 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.
