A total solar eclipse will occur on Monday, November 25, 2030. Totality will be visible in Namibia, Botswana, South Africa, Lesotho, and Australia.

Contents

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 total solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is larger than the Sun's, blocking all direct sunlight, turning day into darkness. Totality occurs in a narrow path across Earth's surface, with the partial solar eclipse visible over a surrounding region thousands of kilometres wide.

Path

The path of totality will begin in the Atlantic Ocean. It will then pass through Namibia (serving the capital Windhoek), Botswana (serving Tsabong), and South Africa (serving Durban; also visible in parts of Lesotho). After that, it will pass through the Indian Ocean, where it will terminate in Australia (visiting the states of South Australia, New South Wales, and Queensland). [1]

A partial eclipse will be visible in most of Southern Africa, East Antarctica, and Australia.

Solar eclipses 2029–2032

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. [2]

Note: Partial solar eclipses on January 14, 2029 and July 11, 2029 occur on the previous lunar year eclipse set.

Saros 133

Solar Saros 133, repeating every 18 years, 11 days, contains 72 events. The series started with a partial solar eclipse on July 13, 1219. It contains annular eclipses from November 20, 1435, through January 13, 1526, with a hybrid eclipse on January 24, 1544. It has total eclipses from February 3, 1562, through June 21, 2373. The series ends at member 72 as a partial eclipse on September 5, 2499. The longest duration of totality was 6 minutes, 49.97 seconds on August 7, 1850. [3] The total eclipses of this saros series are getting shorter and farther south with each iteration. All eclipses in this series occurs at the Moon’s ascending node.

Series members 30–56 occur between 1742 and 2211

Metonic series

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.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Solar eclipse of July 2, 2019</span> Total eclipse

A total solar eclipse occurred at the ascending node of the Moon's orbit on Tuesday, July 2, 2019, with an eclipse magnitude of 1.0459. Totality was visible from the southern Pacific Ocean east of New Zealand to the Coquimbo Region in Chile and Central Argentina at sunset, with the maximum of 4 minutes 33 seconds visible from the Pacific Ocean. The Moon was only 2.4 days before perigee, making it fairly large.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Solar eclipse of March 30, 2052</span> Total eclipse

A total solar eclipse will occur at the Moon's descending node of the orbit on Saturday, March 30, 2052. 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 total solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is larger than the Sun's, blocking all direct sunlight, turning day into darkness. Totality occurs in a narrow path across Earth's surface, with the partial solar eclipse visible over a surrounding region thousands of kilometres wide. The path of totality will cross central Mexico and the southeastern states of the United States. Almost all of North America and the northern edge of South America will see a partial eclipse. It will be the 2nd total eclipse visible from the Florida Panhandle and southwest Georgia in 6.6 years. It will be the first total solar eclipse visible from Solar Saros 130 in 223 synodic months. It will be the last total solar eclipse visible in the United States until May 11, 2078.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Solar eclipse of August 12, 2026</span> Total eclipse

A total solar eclipse will occur at the Moon's descending node of the orbit on Wednesday, August 12, 2026, two days past perigee, in parts of North America and Europe. The total eclipse will pass over the Arctic, Greenland, Iceland, Atlantic Ocean, northern Spain And very extreme north eastern Portugal The points of greatest duration and greatest eclipse will be just 45 km (28 mi) off the western coast of Iceland by 65°10.3' N and 25°12.3' W, where the totality will last 2m 18.21s. It will be the first total solar eclipse visible in Iceland since June 30, 1954, also Solar Saros series 126, and the only one to occur in the 21st century as the next one visible over Iceland will be in 2196. As lunar perigee will occur on August 10, 2026, two days before the total solar eclipse, the Moon's apparent diameter will be larger.
