Seeing totality
The nearest edge of the path of totality is about 2,469 km south-west of Mashhad.
The nearest place on this site with at least a minute of totality is Al ‘Aqīq, about 2,479 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.
