Solar Saros 151 Explained

Saros cycle series 151 for solar eclipses occurs at the Moon's ascending node, repeating every 18 years, 11 days, containing 72 eclipses, 46 of which will be umbral (6 annular, 1 hybrid, and 39 total). The first eclipse in the series was on 14 August 1776 and the last will be on 1 October 3056.

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 151 appears in the following table.

Classification	Number	Percent
All Umbral eclipses	46	100.00%
Central (two limits)	44	95.65%
Central (one limit)	2	4.35%
Non-central (one limit)	0	0.00%
