The periodicity and recurrance of solar (and lunar) eclipses is governed by the Saros cycle, a period of approximately 6,585.3 days (18 years 11 days 8 hours). When two eclipses are separated by a period of one Saros, they share a very similar geometry. The eclipses occur at the same node with the Moon at nearly the same distance from Earth and at the same time of year. Thus, the Saros is useful for organizing eclipses into families or series. Each series typically lasts 12 to 13 centuries and contains 70 or more eclipses.
Lunar eclipses of Saros series 145 all occur at the Moons descending node and the Moon moves northward with each eclipse. The series began with a partial eclipse south of the Ecliptic on 1832 Aug 11. The series will end with a partial eclipse north of the Ecliptic on 3094 Sep 16. The total duration of Saros series 145 is 1262.11 years. In summary:
First Eclipse = 1832 Aug 11 14:14:47 UT Last Eclipse = 3094 Sep 16 18:28:32 UT Duration of Saros 145 = 1262.11 Years
During Saros series 145, Earth experiences 71 lunar eclipses as follows:
All Eclipses = 71 = 100.0% Penumbral (N) = 26 = 36.6% Partial (P) = 30 = 42.3% Total (T) = 15 = 21.1%
Umbral Eclipses = 45 = 63.4% Central = 7 = 9.9% Non-Central = 8 = 11.3%
