Lunar Saros 108

Last updated November 15, 2019

Saros cycle series 108 for lunar eclipses occurs at the moon's ascending node, 18 years 11 and 1/3 days. It contains 72 events.^[1]

A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes directly behind Earth and into its shadow. This can occur only when the Sun, Earth, and Moon are exactly or very closely aligned, with Earth between the other two. A lunar eclipse can occur only on the night of a full moon. The type and length of a lunar eclipse depend on the Moon's proximity to either node of its orbit.

The saros is a period of exactly 223 synodic months, that can be used to predict eclipses of the Sun and Moon. One saros period after an eclipse, the Sun, Earth, and Moon return to approximately the same relative geometry, a near straight line, and a nearly identical eclipse will occur, in what is referred to as an eclipse cycle. A sar is one half of a saros.

A total lunar eclipse took place on May 4, 2004, the first of two total lunar eclipses in 2004, the second being on October 28, 2004.

Saros cycle series 121 for lunar eclipses occurs at the moon's descending node. It began in 1029 and will end in 2526. It contains 84 member lunar eclipses, each separated by 18 years 11 and 1/3 days, and will last 1496.5 years.

A total lunar eclipse took place on August 6, 1971. The moon passed through the center of the Earth's shadow.

A total lunar eclipse took place on April 24, 1986, the first of two total lunar eclipses in 1986, the second being on October 17, 1986.

A total lunar eclipse took place on April 2, 1950. This was the first total lunar eclipse of Saros cycle 131.

A penumbral lunar eclipse took place on Wednesday, August 27, 1969, the second of three penumbral lunar eclipses in 1969, the first being on Wednesday, April 2, and the last being on Thursday, September 25. This is the last lunar eclipse of Saros 108

A total lunar eclipse took place on July 26, 1953.

A total lunar eclipse will take place on September 19, 2043.
