About This Tool

Not every eclipse is a total solar eclipse. The Sun is about 400 times the diameter of the Moon, therefore, only when the sun and moon’s orbit “Meet” and the distance between the sun and the Earth reaches at least 400 times the distance between the Sun and the Moon, the moon can completely block the sun from the Earth’s rays, forming a total solar eclipse. Global total eclipses occur every 1.5 years on average. In the 5th century BC, we can see 62 total eclipses over the course of the century using this random tool.

In addition, in addition to total solar eclipses, partial solar eclipses, such as the existence of annular eclipses also allow astronomers to have more fun observation. Based on the observation equipment of different countries at that time, in this generator, we also list in detail the specific Time, place, type, coordinates, Magnitude, Central duration, Path width, Time of greatest eclipse and other basic knowledge required to observe an eclipse.

Click the "Display All Items" button and you will get a list of solar eclipses in the 5th century BC.
