List Of Solar Eclipses In The 17th Century
This is a list of solar eclipses in the 17th century. During the period 1601 to 1700 there were 248 solar eclipses of which 89 were partial, 74 were annular, 61 were total (one non-central), and 24 were hybrids. The greatest number of eclipses in one year was four, occurring in 16 different years: 1613, 1620, 1624, 1631, 1638, 1642, 1649, 1653, 1660, 1667, 1671, 1678, 1685, 1689, 1693, and 1696. Two months, May 1631 and May 1696, had two eclipses. References {{DEFAULTSORT:Solar eclipses in the 17th century 17th century-related lists +17 ...

Solar Eclipse
A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby obscuring the view of the Sun from a small part of the Earth, totally or partially. Such an alignment occurs during an eclipse season, approximately every six months, during the new moon phase, when the Moon's orbital plane is closest to the plane of the Earth's orbit. In a total eclipse, the disk of the Sun is fully obscured by the Moon. In partial and annular eclipses, only part of the Sun is obscured. Unlike a lunar eclipse, which may be viewed from anywhere on the night side of Earth, a solar eclipse can only be viewed from a relatively small area of the world. As such, although total solar eclipses occur somewhere on Earth every 18 months on average, they recur at any given place only once every 360 to 410 years. If the Moon were in a perfectly circular orbit and in the same orbital plane as Earth, there would be total solar eclipses once a month, at every new moon. Instead, because the Moon ...

NASA
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA ) is an independent agency of the US federal government responsible for the civil space program, aeronautics research, and space research. NASA was established in 1958, succeeding the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA), to give the U.S. space development effort a distinctly civilian orientation, emphasizing peaceful applications in space science. NASA has since led most American space exploration, including Project Mercury, Project Gemini, the 1968-1972 Apollo Moon landing missions, the Skylab space station, and the Space Shuttle. NASA supports the International Space Station and oversees the development of the Orion spacecraft and the Space Launch System for the crewed lunar Artemis program, Commercial Crew spacecraft, and the planned Lunar Gateway space station. The agency is also responsible for the Launch Services Program, which provides oversight of launch operations and countdown management f ...

Solar Eclipse Of January 4, 1639
A partial solar eclipse occurred on January 4, 1639 during winter in Asia's Siberia in the Samoyed lands. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partly obscuring the image of the Sun for a viewer on Earth. A partial solar eclipse occurs in the polar regions of the Earth when the center of the Moon's shadow misses the Earth. This event marked the beginning of Solar Saros 145. As is shown under 0.1% obscuration, the center of the Moon's shadow was missed by about 2,826 km above the area (64 N) south of the Arctic Circle. Description It was the first eclipse of solar saros 145 with the moon's penumbra touching the earth for just under 8 minutes, sometimes, it was called a micro-eclipse. The greatest eclipse was in the land of the Samoyeds at 64.6 N and 80 E at 4:56 UTC (9:56 AM local time) at the fourth minute. All of the eclipse occurred at or after sunrise. Another mini-eclipse occurred on April 16, 1512, 127 years e ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Solar Eclipse Of April 8, 1652
A total solar eclipse occurred on April 8 New Style (NS), 1652, a Monday. In contemporary British sources, the date is alternately listed as March 29, 1652 following the Old Style (OS) as Great Britain had not yet adopted of the Gregorian Calendar by that time. 19th century authors further adjusted the date to March 25 NS, 1652. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partly obscuring the image of the Sun for a viewer on Earth. A total solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is larger than the Sun's, blocking all direct sunlight, turning day into darkness. Totality occurs in a narrow path across Earth's surface, with the partial solar eclipse visible over a surrounding region thousands of kilometres wide. The path of totality intersected the British Isles, as well as passing just off the west coast of Norway. Observations Observing the eclipse from Carrickfergus, Ireland, Dr. John Wybard wrote in Latin: : "Luna mom ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

A total solar eclipse occurred on August 12, 1673. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partly obscuring the image of the Sun for a viewer on Earth. A total solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is larger than the Sun's, blocking all direct sunlight, turning day into darkness. Totality occurs in a narrow path across Earth's surface, with the partial solar eclipse visible over a surrounding region thousands of kilometres wide. Description The eclipse was visible in nearly all of Africa (with the exception of a part of what is now southern Namibia and southern South Africa), southern Europe, parts of the Middle East and other parts of Asia, Mysore, Maldives, Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), Sumatra and western Java as well as a part of the middle Atlantic and most of the Indian Ocean. It was part of solar saros 130. The umbral portion which was as far as 242 km, it included areas that were 50 miles (90–100 km) ...

17th-century Solar Eclipses
The 17th century lasted from January 1, 1601 ( MDCI), to December 31, 1700 ( MDCC). It falls into the early modern period of Europe and in that continent (whose impact on the world was increasing) was characterized by the Baroque cultural movement, the latter part of the Spanish Golden Age, the Dutch Golden Age, the French ''Grand Siècle'' dominated by Louis XIV, the Scientific Revolution, the world's first public company and megacorporation known as the Dutch East India Company, and according to some historians, the General Crisis. From the mid-17th century, European politics were increasingly dominated by the Kingdom of France of Louis XIV, where royal power was solidified domestically in the civil war of the Fronde. The semi-feudal territorial French nobility was weakened and subjugated to the power of an absolute monarchy through the reinvention of the Palace of Versailles from a hunting lodge to a gilded prison, in which a greatly expanded royal court could be more easil ...

17th Century-related Lists
17 (seventeen) is the natural number following 16 and preceding 18. It is a prime number. Seventeen is the sum of the first four prime numbers. In mathematics 17 is the seventh prime number, which makes seventeen the fourth super-prime, as seven is itself prime. The next prime is 19, with which it forms a twin prime. It is a cousin prime with 13 and a sexy prime with 11 and 23. It is an emirp, and more specifically a permutable prime with 71, both of which are also supersingular primes. Seventeen is the sixth Mersenne prime exponent, yielding 131,071. Seventeen is the only prime number which is the sum of four consecutive primes: 2, 3, 5, 7. Any other four consecutive primes summed would always produce an even number, thereby divisible by 2 and so not prime. Seventeen can be written in the form x^y + y^x and x^y - y^x, and, as such, it is a Leyland prime and Leyland prime of the second kind: :17=2^+3^=3^-4^. 17 is one of seven lucky numbers of Euler which prod ...
