The unfortunate fact is that the longest total solar eclipse of the 21st century cannot be observed from North America or Europe. For 6 minutes and 39 seconds the Moon will cover the Sun. The course of the eclipse starts in the west of India and goes eastwards. It passes India, Bhutan and China (including Shanghai) before the eclipse hits the pacific ocean south of Japan.
