Solar Saros 157
Saros cycle series 157 for solar eclipses will at the Moon's ascending lunar node, node, repeating every 18 years, 11 days, containing 70 eclipses, 56 of which will be umbral (19 annular, 3 hybrid, 34 total). The first eclipse will occur on Solar eclipse of June 21, 2058, 21 June 2058 and the last will be on 17 July 3302. The longest totality will be 5 minutes 57 seconds on 31 July 2725 and the longest annular will be 4 minutes 16 seconds on 22 November 2310. This solar saros is linked to Lunar Saros 150. 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 157 appears in the following table.

Saros Cycle
The saros () is a period of exactly 223 synodic months, 18 years 11 days and 8 hours, that can be used to predict eclipses of the Sun and Moon. One saros period after an eclipse, the Sun, Earth, and Moon return to approximately the same relative geometry, a near straight line, and a nearly identical eclipse will occur, in what is referred to as an eclipse cycle. Every eclipse has an associated saros series and all succeeding or preceding eclipses have a different saros series associated with them - as the eclipse of the same series occurs or occurred with a gap of one saros only. Solar and lunar eclipses have different saros series. A series of eclipses that are separated by one saros is called a ''saros series''. It corresponds to: *6,585.321347 solar days *18.029 years *223 synodic months *241.999 draconic months *18.999 eclipse years (38 eclipse seasons of 173.31 days) *238.992 anomalistic months *241.029 sidereal months The 19 eclipse years means that if there is a solar ec ...
