Introduction
The Annular Solar Eclipse of 0675 Apr 01 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 0675 Apr 01 at 04:46:29 TD (03:39:38 UT1). This is 1.5 days after the Moon reaches apogee. During the eclipse, the Sun is in the constellation Aries. The synodic month in which the eclipse takes place has a Brown Lunation Number of -15432.
The eclipse belongs to Saros 98 and is number 28 of 71 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 0675 Apr 01 is a relatively long annular eclipse with a duration at greatest eclipse of 07m10s. It has an eclipse magnitude of 0.9377.
The annular solar eclipse of 0675 Apr 01 is preceded two weeks earlier by a partial lunar eclipse on 0675 Mar 17.
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 4011.3 seconds for this eclipse. The uncertainty in ΔT is 104.8 seconds corresponding to a standard error in longitude of the eclipse path of ± 0.44°.
