Solar Saros 133 Explained

Saros cycle series 133 for solar eclipses occurs at the Moon's ascending node, repeating every 18 years, 11 days, containing 72 eclipses, 53 of which are umbral (6 annular, 1 hybrid, 46 total). The first eclipse in the series was on 13 July 1219 and the last will be on 5 September 2499. The most recent eclipse was a total eclipse on 13 November 2012 and the next will be a total eclipse on 25 November 2030.

The longest duration of totality was 6 minutes, 49.97 seconds on August 7, 1850[1] and the longest annular was 1 minute 14 seconds on 30 November 1453. This solar saros is linked to Lunar Saros 126.

Umbral eclipses

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 133 appears in the following table.
