Seeing totality
The nearest edge of the path of totality is about 971 km south-west of Tadmur.
The nearest place on this site with at least a minute of totality is Samālūţ, about 999 km south-west, where totality lasts 2 m 49 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.
