Introduction
The Total Solar Eclipse of -1034 Jul 22 (1035 Jul 22 BCE) is visible from the geographic regions shown on the map to the right. Click on the map to enlarge it. For an explanation of the features appearing in the map, see Key to Solar Eclipse Maps.
The instant of greatest eclipse takes place on -1034 Jul 22 at 12:49:29 TD (05:37:56 UT1). This is 0.6 days before the Moon reaches perigee. During the eclipse, the Sun is in the constellation Leo. The synodic month in which the eclipse takes place has a Brown Lunation Number of -36566.
The eclipse belongs to Saros 29 and is number 48 of 73 eclipses in the series. All eclipses in this series occur at the Moons ascending node. The Moon moves southward with respect to the node with each succeeding eclipse in the series and gamma decreases.
The solar eclipse of -1034 Jul 22 is a relatively long total eclipse with a duration at greatest eclipse of 05m32s. It has an eclipse magnitude of 1.0639.
The total solar eclipse of -1034 Jul 22 is followed two weeks later by a partial lunar eclipse on -1034 Aug 06.
These eclipses all take place during a single eclipse season.
The eclipse predictions are given in both Terrestrial Dynamical Time (TD) and Universal Time (UT1). The parameter ΔT is used to convert between these two times (i.e., UT1 = TD - ΔT). ΔT has a value of 25893.3 seconds for this eclipse. The uncertainty in ΔT is 689.2 seconds corresponding to a standard error in longitude of the eclipse path of ± 2.88°.
