Solar Eclipse
Global solar events and local eclipse contacts.
Calculated for 2026. Global eclipse type describes the alignment; the contact tables below show whether the Sun or Moon is above your selected place’s horizon at each event. A positive centre altitude near 0° remains sensitive to terrain and atmospheric conditions. Sutak and temple closures are not inferred from these astronomical contacts.
