| The saros period is therefore extremely useful for the prediction of both solar and lunar eclipses. |
| A rapid cruiser of the fleet carried the Egyptian standard along the coast as far as the regions of the Orontes and saros. |
| Total solar eclipse tracks perform consistent geographical steps within a saros, as in Figure 2.2, and there are systematic trends in other eclipse sequences. |
| The discovery of the saros was such as was within their power, and was certainly no small achievement. |
| Thus, the Moon's distance from Earth is the same after a whole number of anomalistic months and very nearly the same after one saros. |
| He is against its being so far north as the Gulf of saros and the narrow neck of land there. |
