Introduction
The Annular Solar Eclipse of -0082 Nov 22 (0083 Nov 22 BCE) 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 -0082 Nov 22 at 15:18:40 TD (12:09:14 UT1). This is 5.2 days after the Moon reaches apogee. During the eclipse, the Sun is in the constellation Sagittarius. The synodic month in which the eclipse takes place has a Brown Lunation Number of -24787.
The eclipse belongs to Saros 70 and is number 42 of 84 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 -0082 Nov 22 is a relatively long annular eclipse with a duration at greatest eclipse of 06m01s. It has an eclipse magnitude of 0.9458.
The annular solar eclipse of -0082 Nov 22 is preceded two weeks earlier by a penumbral lunar eclipse on -0082 Nov 07, and it is followed two weeks later by a penumbral lunar eclipse on -0082 Dec 06.
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 11366.0 seconds for this eclipse. The uncertainty in ΔT is 289.1 seconds corresponding to a standard error in longitude of the eclipse path of ± 1.21°.
