Solar Eclipses in Saros Series 121

This page lists all the solar eclipses in saros series 121. The series contains 71 eclipses, occurring over 1262 years.

This series is partnered with lunar Saros series 114.

The following chart shows the paths of the total (in blue), annular (in red), and hybrid (in yellow) solar eclipses in the series which also have mapping data; this is restricted to eclipses between 1900 and 2100, so only a selection of eclipses from the series are shown. Use the zoom controls on the left to zoom in and out; hover over the marker in the middle of an eclipse track to see information on that eclipse. Bear in mind that for each eclipse shown, a partial eclipse is visible over a much wider area.

The interactive map is currently not available.

Note that eclipse dates are specified relative to UT. You have not selected a timezone for eclipse timings, so all times are shown in UT (essentially GMT).
