   Bibliography. External links. Saros (astronomy) The saros ( / ˈsɛərɒs / ⓘ) is a period of exactly 223 synodic months, approximately 6585.321 days, or 18 years plus 10, 11, or 12 days (depending on the number of leap years ), and 8 hours, that can be used to predict eclipses of the Sun and Moon.

   How many eclipses are in a Saros series?

   • A saros series typically lasts 12 or 13 centuries and contains 70 or more eclipses. Each series begins with about 10 partial eclipses at high latitudes. It slowly evolves to produce to 40 to 50 central eclipses (total, annular, or hybrid). The series eventually ends with about another 10 partial eclipses.

   How does the Saros cycle affect a solar eclipse?

   • The 8 hours in the Saros cycle shifts the path of each succeeding eclipse by about 120 degrees in longitude. The shift in latitude of each eclipse is due to the change in the Moon's distance from its orbital node. Babylonian astronomers discovered the saros cycle around the 7th or 8th century B.C.

   How do Saros predict eclipses?

   • They use sophisticated mathematical models, known as astronomical ephemerides, to predict the positions of the Sun and the Moon and thereby can predict eclipses thousands of years into the past and future. Nevertheless, the saros remains a simple and useful tool to understand the repetition of solar and lunar eclipses.

   How did Babylonian astronomers discover the Saros cycle?

   • Babylonian astronomers discovered the saros cycle around the 7th or 8th century B.C. They were keen observers and kept meticulous records of astronomical events for hundreds of years on clay tablets. This allowed them to recognize the saros pattern in both solar and lunar eclipses.
