What you'll see in M'sila

Artist's impression of totality over M'sila: the Moon fully covering the Sun, with the corona showing around it.

Artist's impression. The Sun's height above the rooftops is its real altitude from M'sila; the skyline itself is generic.

M'sila, inland on the Algerian high plateau, gets 5m23s of totality under a 49° Sun and typically clear August skies.

The Sun is high in the sky here, so unlike a low-horizon eclipse you do not need a distant, unobstructed skyline — but a courtyard or a narrow street can still put a rooftop in the way. Step somewhere with open sky overhead.

⚠ Eye safety

Use ISO 12312-2 certified eclipse glasses for the entire partial phase. The ONLY exception is 09:58:09–10:03:32 UTC+1, when the Sun is fully covered from M'sila.
