Solar eclipse of January 27, 2074
Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Solar eclipse". An annular solar eclipse will occur at the Moon's descending node of orbit on Saturday, January 27, 2074,[1] with a magnitude of 0.9798. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partly obscuring the image of the Sun for a viewer on Earth. An annular solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is smaller than the Sun's, blocking most of the Sun's light and causing the Sun to look like an annulus (ring). An annular eclipse appears as a partial eclipse over a region of the Earth thousands of kilometres wide. Occurring about 5.2 days after apogee (on January 21, 2074, at 13:40 UTC), the Moon's apparent diameter will be smaller.[2]
The path of annularity will be visible from parts of eastern Chad, Sudan, northern South Sudan, Ethiopia, Somalia, the Maldives, Sri Lanka, the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, southeastern China, and southwestern Japan. A partial solar eclipse will also be visible for parts of Central Africa, East Africa, Eastern Europe, and Asia.

Eclipse season
Script error: No such module "Labelled list hatnote". This eclipse is part of an eclipse season, a period, roughly every six months, when eclipses occur. Only two (or occasionally three) eclipse seasons occur each year, and each season lasts about 35 days and repeats just short of six months (173 days) later; thus two full eclipse seasons always occur each year. Either two or three eclipses happen each eclipse season. In the sequence below, each eclipse is separated by a fortnight.

Solar eclipses of 2073–2076
This eclipse is a member of a semester series. An eclipse in a semester series of solar eclipses repeats approximately every 177 days and 4 hours (a semester) at alternating nodes of the Moon's orbit.[4]
The partial solar eclipses on June 1, 2076 and November 26, 2076 occur in the next lunar year eclipse set.

Saros 132
This eclipse is a part of Saros series 132, repeating every 18 years, 11 days, and containing 71 events. The series started with a partial solar eclipse on August 13, 1208. It contains annular eclipses from March 17, 1569 through March 12, 2146; hybrid eclipses on March 23, 2164 and April 3, 2182; and total eclipses from April 14, 2200 through June 19, 2308. The series ends at member 71 as a partial eclipse on September 25, 2470. Its eclipses are tabulated in three columns; every third eclipse in the same column is one exeligmos apart, so they all cast shadows over approximately the same parts of the Earth.
The longest duration of annularity was produced by member 25 at 6 minutes, 56 seconds on May 9, 1641, and the longest duration of totality will be produced by member 61 at 2 minutes, 14 seconds on June 8, 2290. All eclipses in this series occur at the Moon’s descending node of orbit.[5]
