A partial solar eclipse will occur on Wednesday, September 2, 2054. 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.
This is the last of first set of partial eclipses of Solar Saros 155. The next event is the Total Solar Eclipse on September 12, 2072, which is the first of 56 umbral eclipses, starting in 2072 and ending in 3064. The total duration is almost one millennium, exactly 992 years.
This eclipse is a member of a semester series. An eclipse in a semester series of solar eclipses repeats approximately every 177 days and 4 hours (a semester) at alternating nodes of the Moon's orbit.[1]
It is a part of Saros cycle 155, repeating every 18 years, 11 days (223 synodic months), contains 71 events. The series started with a partial solar eclipse on June 17, 1928. It has total eclipses from September 12, 2072 to August 30, 2649. The series also has 3 hybrid eclipses from September 10, 2667 to October 3, 2703 and 20 annular eclipses from October 13, 2721 to May 8, 3064.
The series ends at member 71 as a partial eclipse on July 24, 3190. The longest total eclipses will be on October 26, 2144 and on November 6, 2162, at 4 minutes and 5 seconds.[2]
The metonic series repeats eclipses every 19 years (6939.69 days), lasting about 5 cycles. Eclipses occur in nearly the same calendar date. In addition, the octon subseries repeats 1/5 of that or every 3.8 years (1387.94 days). All eclipses in this table occur at the Moon's ascending node.
21 eclipse events between June 21, 1982, and June 21, 2058
