July 11, 1991 Total Solar Eclipse observed from Mexico (Novillero, La Paz, Mazatlan). Jupiter and Venus were seen during totality and were thought by some to be UFOs. The length of this eclipse was 6 minutes and 53 seconds. The next eclipse this long will be in 2132. There are solar and lunar eclipses every year, somewhere in the world. China and India will experience a long eclipse on July 22, 2009. The next total eclipse for the United States will be in 2017.
