Solar Saros-Inex Panorama
A saros-inex panorama has been produced by Luca Quaglia and John Tilley. It shows 61775 solar eclipses from -11000 to +15000.
Within each column of the graph is a complete Saros series which progresses smoothly from partial eclipses into total eclipses and back into partials. Each Inex series extends as a graph row.
The lifetime and form of each Inex series is not simple due to long term period variations: the synodic, draconic and anomalistic months.

Famous quotes containing the words solar and/or panorama:
“The solar system has no anxiety about its reputation, and the credit of truth and honesty is as safe; nor have I any fear that a skeptical bias can be given by leaning hard on the sides of fate, of practical power, or of trade, which the doctrine of Faith cannot down-weigh.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“It was a comfort in those succeeding days to sit up and contemplate the majestic panorama of mountains and valleys spread out below us and eat ham and hard boiled eggs while our spiritual natures reveled alternately in rainbows, thunderstorms, and peerless sunsets. Nothing helps scenery like ham and eggs.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
