# Solar eclipse of July 22, 2047

A partial solar eclipse will occur at the Moon's descending node of orbit between Monday, July 22 and Tuesday, July 23, 2047, with a magnitude of 0.3604. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partly obscuring the image of the Sun for a viewer on Earth. A partial solar eclipse occurs in the polar regions of the Earth when the center of the Moon's shadow misses the Earth.
This will be the third of four partial solar eclipses in 2047, with the others occurring on January 26, June 23, and December 16.
The partial solar eclipse will be visible for parts of southeastern Australia and New Zealand.

## Eclipse season

This eclipse is part of an eclipse season, a period, roughly every six months, when eclipses occur. Only two (or occasionally three) eclipse seasons occur each year, and each season lasts about 35 days and repeats just short of six months (173 days) later; thus two full eclipse seasons always occur each year. Either two or three eclipses happen each eclipse season. In the sequence below, each eclipse is separated by a fortnight. The first and last eclipse in this sequence is separated by one synodic month.
Eclipse season of June–July 2047 :
| June 23 Descending node (new moon) | July 7 Ascending node (full moon) | July 22 Descending node (new moon) |
| Partial solar eclipse Solar Saros 118 | Total lunar eclipse Lunar Saros 130 | Partial solar eclipse Solar Saros 156 |

### Solar eclipses of 2044–2047

This eclipse is a member of a semester series. An eclipse in a semester series of solar eclipses repeats approximately every 177 days and 4 hours (a semester) at alternating nodes of the Moon's orbit.
The partial solar eclipses on June 23, 2047 and December 16, 2047 occur in the next lunar year eclipse set.
Solar eclipse series sets from 2044 to 2047 :
| Ascending node | Ascending node | Ascending node | Descending node | Descending node | Descending node |
| Saros | Map | Gamma | Saros | Map | Gamma |
| 121 | February 28, 2044 Annular | −0.9954 | 126 | August 23, 2044 Total | 0.9613 |

### Saros 156

This eclipse is a part of Saros series 156, repeating every 18 years, 11 days, and containing 69 events. The series started with a partial solar eclipse on July 1, 2011. It contains annular eclipses from September 26, 2155 through April 7, 3075. There are no hybrid or total eclipses in this set. The series ends at member 69 as a partial eclipse on July 14, 3237. Its eclipses are tabulated in three columns; every third eclipse in the same column is one exeligmos apart, so they all cast shadows over approximately the same parts of the Earth.
The longest duration of annularity will be produced by member 29 at 8 minutes, 28 seconds on May 3, 2516. All eclipses in this series occur at the Moon’s descending node of orbit.
Series members 1–11 occur between 2011 and 2200: :
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
| July 1, 2011 | July 11, 2029 | July 22, 2047 |
| 4 | 5 | 6 |

### Metonic series

The metonic series repeats eclipses every 19 years (6939.69 days), lasting about 5 cycles. Eclipses occur in nearly the same calendar date. In addition, the octon subseries repeats 1/5 of that or every 3.8 years (1387.94 days). All eclipses in this table occur at the Moon's descending node.
21 eclipse events between July 22, 1971 and July 22, 2047 :
| July 22 | May 9–11 | February 26–27 | December 14–15 | October 2–3 |

### Tritos series

This eclipse is a part of a tritos cycle, repeating at alternating nodes every 135 synodic months (≈ 3986.63 days, or 11 years minus 1 month). Their appearance and longitude are irregular due to a lack of synchronization with the anomalistic month (period of perigee), but groupings of 3 tritos cycles (≈ 33 years minus 3 months) come close (≈ 434.044 anomalistic months), so eclipses are similar in these groupings.
The partial solar eclipses on November 16, 2134 (part of Saros 164) and October 16, 2145 (part of Saros 165) are also a part of this series but are not included in the table below.
Series members between 1801 and 2069 :
| June 6, 1807 (Saros 134) | May 5, 1818 (Saros 135) | April 3, 1829 (Saros 136) | March 4, 1840 (Saros 137) | February 1, 1851 (Saros 138) |
| December 31, 1861 (Saros 139) | November 30, 1872 (Saros 140) | October 30, 1883 (Saros 141) | September 29, 1894 (Saros 142) | August 30, 1905 (Saros 143) |
| July 30, 1916 (Saros 144) | June 29, 1927 (Saros 145) | May 29, 1938 (Saros 146) | April 28, 1949 (Saros 147) | March 27, 1960 (Saros 148) |
| February 25, 1971 (Saros 149) | January 25, 1982 (Saros 150) | December 24, 1992 (Saros 151) | November 23, 2003 (Saros 152) | October 23, 2014 (Saros 153) |

### Inex series

This eclipse is a part of the long period inex cycle, repeating at alternating nodes, every 358 synodic months (≈ 10,571.95 days, or 29 years minus 20 days). Their appearance and longitude are irregular due to a lack of synchronization with the anomalistic month (period of perigee). However, groupings of 3 inex cycles (≈ 87 years minus 2 months) comes close (≈ 1,151.02 anomalistic months), so eclipses are similar in these groupings.
Series members between 1801 and 2200 :
| December 30, 1815 (Saros 148) | December 9, 1844 (Saros 149) | November 20, 1873 (Saros 150) |
| October 31, 1902 (Saros 151) | October 11, 1931 (Saros 152) | September 20, 1960 (Saros 153) |
| August 31, 1989 (Saros 154) | August 11, 2018 (Saros 155) | July 22, 2047 (Saros 156) |
