Lists of solar eclipses. Total solar eclipse of July 22, 2009, from Bangladesh. During the 21st century, there will be 224 solar eclipses of which 77 will be partial, 72 will be annular, 68 will be total and 7 will be hybrids between total and annular eclipses. Of these, two annular and one total eclipse will be non-central, [1] in the sense ...
A total solar eclipse is a rare event, recurring somewhere on Earth every 18 months on average, [38] yet is estimated to recur at any given location only every 360–410 years on average. [39] The total eclipse lasts for only a maximum of a few minutes at any location because the Moon's umbra moves eastward at over 1700 km/h (1100 mph; 470 m/s ...
A symbolic orbital diagram from the view of the Earth at the center, showing the Moon's two nodes where eclipses can occur. Up to three eclipses may occur during an eclipse season, a one- or two-month period that happens twice a year, around the time when the Sun is near the nodes of the Moon's orbit. An eclipse does not occur every month ...

If the orbit of the Earth around the Sun and the Moon's orbit around the Earth were both in the same plane with each other, then eclipses would happen every month. There would be a lunar eclipse at every full moon, and a solar eclipse at every new moon. It is because of the non-planar differences that eclipses are not a common event. If both ...
