Series member 31

Saros cycle series 138 for solar eclipses occurs at the Moon's descending node, repeating every 18 years, 11 days, containing 70 eclipses, 54 of which are umbral (50 annular, 1 hybrid, 3 total). The first eclipse of the series was on 6 June 1472 and the last will be on 11 July 2716. The most recent eclipse was an annular eclipse on 10 May 2013 and the next will be an annular eclipse on 21 May 2031.

The longest duration of totality will be only 56 seconds on April 3, 2554 while the longest annular was 8 minutes 2 seconds on 11 February 1869.

This solar saros is linked to Lunar Saros 131.

Umbral eclipses

[edit]

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 138 appears in the following table.

Classification Number Percent
All Umbral eclipses 54 100.00%
Central (two limits) 53 98.15%
Central (one limit) 0 0.00%
Non-central (one limit) 1 1.85%
