Solar Saros 122
Saros cycle series 122 for solar eclipses occurs at the Moon's descending lunar node, node, repeating every 18 years, 11 days, containing 70 eclipses, 42 of which are umbral (3 total, 2 hybrid, and 37 annular). The first eclipse was on 17 April 991 and the last will be on 17 May 2235. The most recent eclipse was a partial eclipse on Solar eclipse of January 6, 2019, 6 January 2019 and the next will be a partial eclipse on Solar eclipse of January 16, 2037, 16 January 2037. The longest totality was 1 minute 25 seconds on 12 July 1135, the longest annular was 6 minutes 28 seconds on 10 October 1874, and the longest hybrid was 43 seconds on 13 August 1189. This solar saros is linked to Lunar Saros 115. 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 122 appears in the following table. All ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
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 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Solar Eclipse Of February 7, 2073
A partial solar eclipse will occur at the Moon's descending node of orbit between Monday, February 6 and Tuesday, February 7, 2073, with a magnitude of 0.6768. 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. The partial solar eclipse will be visible for parts of East Asia, Northeast Asia, and western Alaska. Eclipse details Shown below are two tables displaying details about this particular solar eclipse. The first table outlines times at which the moon's penumbra or umbra attains the specific parameter, and the second table describes various other parameters pertaining to this eclipse. Eclipse season This eclipse is part of an eclipse season, a period, roughly every six months, when eclipses occur. Only two (or occasionally three) eclipse seasons oc ...

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 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
