Introduction
The Total Solar Eclipse of 0595 Jul 13 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 0595 Jul 13 at 00:38:15 TD (23:19:02 UT1). This is 2.8 days before the Moon reaches perigee. During the eclipse, the Sun is in the constellation Cancer. The synodic month in which the eclipse takes place has a Brown Lunation Number of -16418.
The eclipse belongs to Saros 94 and is number 35 of 72 eclipses in the series. All eclipses in this series occur at the Moons descending node. The Moon moves northward with respect to the node with each succeeding eclipse in the series and gamma increases.
The solar eclipse of 0595 Jul 13 is a relatively long total eclipse with a duration at greatest eclipse of 04m02s. It has an eclipse magnitude of 1.0409.
The total solar eclipse of 0595 Jul 13 is preceded two weeks earlier by a penumbral lunar eclipse on 0595 Jun 27, and it is followed two weeks later by a penumbral lunar eclipse on 0595 Jul 27.
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 4752.5 seconds for this eclipse. The uncertainty in ΔT is 119.9 seconds corresponding to a standard error in longitude of the eclipse path of ± 0.50°.
