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. |
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. |
He is against its being so far north as the Gulf of saros and the narrow neck of land there. |
As Astronomer Royal his great work was the systematic observation of the positions of the moon through an entire saros. |
A rapid cruiser of the fleet carried the Egyptian standard along the coast as far as the regions of the Orontes and saros. |
Referring to Figure 15-7 one sees how this eclipse echoes that of February 26, 1998, which was a saros earlier. |
