Introduction

The Six Millennium Catalog of Solar Eclipses is organized into a series of sixty 100-year web pages, each one covering a century of solar eclipses. The 100-year table below covers the period 2101 to 2200 (2101 CE to 2200 CE) [1]. The date and time of each eclipse is given for the instant of Greatest Eclipse. Each eclipse date links to a web page containing additional details and a map showing the geographic region of eclipse visibility for that eclipse. A description of each parameter in the catalog table can be found in Key to Catalog of Solar Eclipses.

For an explanation of how eclipses are classified, see Solar Eclipse Basics. The frequency of each eclipse type, the extremes in eclipse magnitude and duration, and other data for the century are presented in the Eclipse Statistics tables following the Catalog of Solar Eclipses. To select a different century, visit the Index to Six Millennium Catalog of Solar Eclipses.

Statistics for Solar Eclipses: 2101 to 2200

During the 22nd century CE [2], Earth will experience 235 solar eclipses. The following table lists the number of eclipses of each type over this period.

Solar Eclipses: 2101 to 2200
Eclipse Type	Symbol	Number	Percent
All Eclipses	-	235	100.0%
Partial	P	79	33.6%
Annular	A	87	37.0%
Total	T	65	27.7%
Hybrid	H	4	1.7%

Annular and total eclipses can be classified as either central or non-central as follows: 1) Central (two limits), 2) Central (one limit) or 3) Non-Central (one limit). The statistical distribution of these classes during the 22nd century CE appears in the following three tables (no Hybrids are included since all are central with two limits).

Annular and Total Eclipses
Classification	Number	Percent
All	152	100.0%
Central (two limits)	140	92.1%
Central (one limit)	7	4.6%
Non-Central (one limit)	5	3.3%

Annular Eclipses
Classification	Number	Percent
All Annular Eclipses	87	100.0%
Central (two limits)	77	88.5%
Central (one limit)	5	5.7%
Non-Central (one limit)	5	5.7%

Total Eclipses
Classification	Number	Percent
All Total Eclipses	65	100.0%
Central (two limits)	63	96.9%
Central (one limit)	2	3.1%
Non-Central (one limit)	0	0.0%

There are a minimum of two and a maximum of five solar eclipses in every calendar year. Statistics for the number of eclipses each year during the century are listed below.

Number of Eclipses Per Year: 2101 to 2200
Number of Eclipses Per Year	Number of Years

The longest and shortest central eclipses of the century as well as largest and smallest partial eclipses appear in the following table.

Extreme Durations and Magnitudes of Eclipses: 2101 to 2200
Extrema Type	Date	Duration	Magnitude
Longest Annular Solar Eclipse	2168 Jan 10	10m55s	-

Longest Total Solar Eclipse	2186 Jul 16	07m29s	-
Shortest Total Solar Eclipse	2200 Apr 14	01m23s	-
Longest Hybrid Solar Eclipse	2172 Oct 17	01m34s	-
Shortest Hybrid Solar Eclipse	2164 Mar 23	00m29s	-
Largest Partial Solar Eclipse	2109 Aug 26	-	0.96697
Smallest Partial Solar Eclipse	2112 Jun 24	-	0.02820

During the century, 4 Saros series begin and 2 Saros series end. The table below gives the Saros series, number of eclipses in the series, the calendar date and whether it is the first or last eclipse in the series.

Begin and End of Saros Series: 2101 to 2200
Saros Series	Number of Eclipses	Date	First/Last
119	71	2112 Jun 24	Last
159	70	2134 May 23	First
165	72	2145 Oct 16	First
161	72	2174 Apr 01	First
160	71	2181 May 13	First

The links in the following table each open a web page containing a 100-year Catalog of Solar Eclipses. Each line in a 100-year catalog lists the primary characteristics for a single eclipse; the eclipse date itself links to a web page containing further details and a map showing the geographic region of eclipse visibility.

Calendar

The Gregorian calendar (also called the Western calendar) is internationally the most widely used civil calendar. It is named for Pope Gregory XIII, who introduced it in 1582. On this website, the Gregorian calendar is used for all calendar dates from 1582 Oct 15 onwards. Before that date, the Julian calendar is used. For more information on this topic, see Calendar Dates.

The Julian calendar does not include the year 0. Thus the year 1 BCE is followed by the year 1 CE (See: BCE/CE Dating Conventions). This is awkward for arithmetic calculations. Years in this catalog are numbered astronomically and include the year 0. Historians should note there is a difference of one year between astronomical dates and BCE dates. Thus, the astronomical year 0 corresponds to 1 BCE, and astronomical year -1 corresponds to 2 BCE, etc..

Eclipse Predictions

The eclipse predictions presented here were generated using the JPL DE406 solar and lunar ephemerides. The lunar coordinates have been calculated with respect to the Moon's Center of Mass.

The largest uncertainty in the eclipse predictions is caused by fluctuations in Earth's rotation due primarily to tidal friction of the Moon. The resultant drift in apparent clock time is expressed as ΔT and is determined as follows:

1. pre-1950's: ΔT calculated from empirical fits to historical records derived by Morrison and Stephenson (2004)
2. 1955-present: ΔT obtained from published observations
3. future: ΔT is extrapolated from current values weighted by the long term trend from tidal effects

A series of polynomial expressions have been derived to simplify the evaluation of ΔT for any time from -2999 to +3000. The uncertainty in ΔT over this period can be estimated from scatter in the measurements.
