Solar and lunar eclipses, 1900 to 2100

Eclipses, 1900–2100

Every solar and lunar eclipse for two centuries — the Sun’s shadow drawn on the ground it crosses, the Moon’s nights shown where they can be seen.

• Pick an eclipse from the list, or step through them with the arrows — the ← and → keys work too.
• Click the map anywhere to see when the eclipse happens there, how much of the Sun is covered, and how long totality lasts.
• Choose a place and the list narrows to the eclipses you could see from it — all of them, or only the ones that go total.
• Press play to watch the shadow and the day/night line cross the Earth — and press the little sky disc to stand at your pin and watch the whole thing overhead.
• Lunar too: the ☾ switch at the top of the list swaps to every eclipse of the Moon, with where each one is visible and the Moon turning red.
• The cog changes the basemap, the colours, and whether times are shown in UT or on your own clock.
