An eclipse of the Sun can only occur at New Moon (see: Solar Eclipses for
Beginners), while an eclipse of the Moon can only occur at Full Moon (see:
Lunar Eclipses for Beginners). In any calendar year there are a minimum of
two solar and two lunar eclipses.
If an eclipse of the Sun or Moon takes place on a given date, it is noted by a
character next to the date in the table above. Solar eclipses are indicated as:
T=Total, A=Annular, H=Hybrid and P=Partial. Lunar eclipses are indicated as:
t=Total, p=Partial, and n=Penumbral.
Phases of the Moon Photo Gallery is an image collection showing the Moon's
phases over a complete synodic month.

Perihelion - the instant when a planet is closest to the Sun

Aphelion - the instant when a planet is furthest from the Sun
Perigee - the instant when the Moon is closest to Earth
Apogee - the instant when the Moon is furthest from Earth
Inferior Conjunction - the instant when a planet passes between Earth and
the Sun (Mercury or Venus)
Superior Conjunction - the instant when a planet passes on the opposite
side of the Sun from Earth (Mercury or Venus)
Greatest Elongation - elongation is the apparent angle between a planet
and the Sun as seen from Earth; during eastern elongation (E), the planet
appears as an evening star; during western elongation (W), the planet
appears as a morning star
Opposition - the instant when a planet appears opposite the Sun as seen
from Earth
Conjunction - the instant when a planet appears closest the Sun as seen
from Earth
Occultation - the Moon occults or eclipses a star or planet
Ascending Node - the point where a planet crosses from the southern to
northern portion of its orbit
Descending Node - the point where a planet crosses from the northern to
the southern portion of its orbit

astronomical events calendar generator.
A
The times of astronomical events listed with a precision in hours and minutes
(i.e., hh:mm) are accurate to the nearest minute. Similarly, the times of
astronomical events listed with a precision in hours (i.e., hh) are accurate to
the nearest hour.
A simplified solar ephemeris results an accuracy of 0.5 hours for the
perihelion and aphelion of Earth. The algorithm used in the perihelion and
aphelion of the other planets is based on unperturbed elliptical orbits. For
Mars, the accuracy is about 2 hours. Due to mutual planetary perturbations,
the times for Jupiter may be in error by several weeks, while Saturn's times
may be in error by a month. The times for Uranus and Neptune may be in error
by several months. In the future, we plan to develop algorithms to improve the
computed times of perihelion and aphelion of the planets.
A
All calculations are by Fred Espenak, and he assumes full responsibility for
their accuracy. Algorithms used in predicting the phases of the Moon, eclipses
and other sky phenomena are based on Astronomical Algorithms by Jean
Meeus (Willmann-Bell, Inc., Richmond, 1998).
