Eclipses 2026-2035

Every eclipse of the Sun and the Moon over the next ten years, computed by the Visit Solar System simulator from the real orbits of the Earth and the Moon. Click a date to open the 3D scene the day before: watch the Moon's shadow sweep across the Earth, or the Moon sink into Earth's shadow.

Kinds of eclipse

• Total: the Moon hides the whole Sun (solar eclipse), or sinks entirely into Earth's shadow (lunar eclipse), where it turns a coppery red.
• Annular: too far from the Earth that day, the Moon looks smaller than the Sun and leaves a ring of light around it. Its distance swings from 356,500 to 406,700 km, and that is what decides between total and annular.
• Hybrid (Sun only): total in the middle of its track, annular at both ends, where the Moon sits low on the horizon and so a little farther away.
• Partial: the alignment is not perfect, only part of the disc is covered.
• Penumbral (Moon only): the Moon crosses Earth's penumbra without touching the shadow itself; it dims slightly, often too little to notice with the naked eye.

How these dates are computed

The dates come from the simulator's almanac engine: true positions of the Sun and the Moon, nodes of the lunar orbit, exact distances of the day. Checked against NASA's eclipse catalogue over 2026-2031, every typed eclipse is right. When an eclipse is too close to the line between two types to call safely, the page simply says "solar eclipse" or "lunar eclipse". Visibility zones are not given: a lunar eclipse is seen from the whole night side of the Earth, a solar eclipse only along a narrow track. The most grazing penumbral eclipses, all but invisible, may be missing from the list.
