Introduction
The Annular Solar Eclipse of 2330 Apr 19 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 2330 Apr 19 at 06:29:24 TD (06:19:49 UT1). This is 0.6 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 5038.
The eclipse belongs to Saros 134 and is number 61 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 2330 Apr 19 is a relatively long annular eclipse with a duration at greatest eclipse of 06m19s. It has an eclipse magnitude of 0.9302.
The annular solar eclipse of 2330 Apr 19 is followed two weeks later by a partial lunar eclipse on 2330 May 03.
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 575.5 seconds for this eclipse. The uncertainty in ΔT is 150.9 seconds corresponding to a standard error in longitude of the eclipse path of ± 0.63°.
