Solar Saros 128
Saros cycle series 128 for solar eclipses occurs at the Moon's descending lunar node, node, repeating every 18 years, 11 days, containing 73 eclipses, 40 of which are umbral (4 total, 4 hybrid, and 32 annular). The first eclipse in the series was on 29 August 984 and the last will be on 1 November 2282. The most recent eclipse was an annular eclipse on Solar eclipse of May 20, 2012, 20 May 2012 and the next will be an annular eclipse on Solar eclipse of June 1, 2030, 1 June 2030. The longest totality was 1 minute 45 seconds on 7 June 1453 and the longest annular was 8 minutes 35 seconds on 1 February 1832. This solar saros is linked to Lunar Saros 121. Umbral eclipses Umbral eclipses (annular, total and hybrid) can be further classified as either: 1) Central (two limits), 2) Central (one limit) or 3) Non-Central (one limit). The statistical distribution of these classes in Saros series 128 appears in the following table. All eclipses Note: Dates are given in the Julian cale ...

Magnitude Of Eclipse
The magnitude of eclipse is the fraction of the angular diameter of a celestial body being eclipsed. This applies to all celestial eclipses. The magnitude of a partial or annular solar eclipse is always between 0.0 and 1.0, while the magnitude of a total solar eclipse is always greater than or equal to 1.0, and has a theoretically maximum value of around 1.12. This measure is strictly a ratio of diameters and should not be confused with the covered fraction of the apparent area (disk) of the eclipsed body. Neither should it be confused with the astronomical magnitude scale of apparent brightness. Effect of the magnitude on a solar eclipse The apparent sizes of the Moon and Sun are both approximately 0.5°, or 30', but both vary because the distance between Earth and Moon varies. (The distance between Earth and Sun also varies, but the effect is slight in comparison.) In an annular solar eclipse, the magnitude of the eclipse is the ratio between the apparent angular diamete ...

Solar Eclipse Of June 22, 2066
An annular solar eclipse will occur at the Moon's Lunar node, descending node of orbit on Tuesday, June 22, 2066, with a Magnitude of eclipse, magnitude of 0.9435. 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. An annular solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is smaller than the Sun's, blocking most of the Sun's light and causing the Sun to look like an Annulus (mathematics), annulus (ring). An annular eclipse appears as a partial eclipse over a region of the Earth thousands of kilometres wide. Occurring about 8 hours after Apsis, apogee (on June 22, 2066, at 11:30 UTC), the Moon's apparent diameter will be smaller. The path of annularity will be visible from parts of the Russian Far East, Alaska, northern Canada, and the Azores. A partial solar eclipse will also be visible for parts of northern Russia, Canada, Greenland, the United States, the Caribbean, Northe ...

Gamma (solar Eclipse)
Gamma (denoted as γ) of an eclipse describes how centrally the shadow of the Moon or Earth strikes the other body. This distance, measured at the moment when the axis of the shadow cone passes closest to the center of the Earth or Moon, is stated as a fraction of the equatorial radius of the earth (6378.137 km). Sign The sign of gamma defines, for a solar eclipse, if the axis of the shadow passes north or south of the center of the Earth; a positive value means north. The Earth is defined as that half which is exposed to the Sun (this changes with the seasons and is not related directly to the Earth's poles or equator; thus, the Earth's center is wherever the Sun is directly overhead). For a lunar eclipse, it defines whether the axis of the Earth's shadow passes north or south of the Moon; a positive value means south. Gamma changes monotonically throughout any single saros series. The change in gamma is larger when Earth is near its aphelion (June to July) than when it is n ...

Annular 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 Earth, totally or partially. Such an alignment occurs approximately every six months, during the eclipse season in its new moon phase, when the Moon's orbital plane is closest to the plane of 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's orbit is t ...
