During the 5,000-year period from -1999 to +3000 (2000 BCE to 3000 CE), Earth will experience 11,898 eclipses of the Sun. The statistical distribution of eclipse types for this interval is as follows : 4,200 partial eclipses, 3,956 annular eclipses, 3,173 total eclipses and 569 hybrid eclipses. All the data accessed through this interface is provided by Fred Espenak and Jean Meeus (NASA Technical Publication TP-2006-214141). The data available is described in greater detail in the Key to Solar Eclipse Catalogs. Years in this catalog are numbered astronomically and include the year 0. Historians should note there is a difference of one year between astronomical dates and BCE dates. Thus, the astronomical year 0 corresponds to 1 BCE, and astronomical year -1 corresponds to 2 BCE, etc.
This Web page will let you determine an eclipse local circumstances at multiple locations for each of the 11,898 solar eclipses (total, annular, hybrid or partial). Be aware that the uncertainty in Earth’s rotational period expressed in the parameter ΔT has an impact on the local circumstances of eclipses in the past and future. Know more about ΔT retrodiction or 5MCSE’s ΔT model.
