When is the next eclipse?

Put the symbols in context.
Solar and lunar eclipses require the right alignment near the Moon’s orbital nodes; most New and Full Moons are not eclipses. The live event list keeps the two categories distinct. Times are shown in UTC in this answer, and you can switch the full calendar to your device’s time zone. A local calendar date can therefore differ from the UTC date.
A question to take with you.
Try: “Which eclipse is next globally, and can it actually be observed where I am?” Those are two related questions with different sources of information.
Try this.
- Check the calculated event and its UTC timestamp.
- Use NASA’s eclipse resources for local visibility and observing information.
