A new analysis by NationalEclipse.com has revealed the frequency of total solar eclipses across countries, showing that while many nations have experienced them recently, others face centuries-long waits. Malta holds the record for the longest dry spell, last seeing a total solar eclipse in 1178 and not expecting another until 2088. Equatorial Guinea faces the longest future wait, with its next total solar eclipse anticipated in 2461. The research highlights that eclipse visibility is unevenly distributed, with some larger countries experiencing longer gaps than smaller ones, and underscores the growing trend of eclipse-chasing as a form of event-driven tourism.
