The solar eclipse of March 29, 2006 from Side, Turkey
Series member 29

Saros cycle series 139 for solar eclipses occurs at the Moon's ascending node repeating every 18 years and 11 days, containing 71 eclipses, including 55 umbral eclipses, 12 of which will be hybrid and 43 of which will be total. The first eclipse was on 17 May 1501 and the last will be on 3 July 2763. The most recent eclipse was on 8 April 2024, lasting 4 minutes 28 seconds over central North America, entering in Mexico, crossing the United States, and leaving in eastern Canada, and the next will be on 19–20 April 2042, lasting 4 minutes 51 seconds over the western Pacific Ocean and passing over western Indonesia, eastern Malaysia, Brunei, and the Philippines.

The first total eclipse occurred on December 21, 1843, over southern Asia and lasted 1 minute and 43 seconds. The last total eclipse will occur on March 26, 2601, over Antarctica and the Southern Ocean, lasting 35 seconds.

This series is currently producing total eclipses over 4 minutes long, with each one gradually increasing in length. It will continue to do so until 16 July 2186, when it will produce the longest total eclipse calculated for the ten millennia from 3999 BCE to 6000 CE.^[1] Starting on May 11, 2078, Saros 139 will begin producing the longest total eclipses of any series, surpassing those of Solar Saros 136, whose eclipses are getting slightly shorter.^[2]

This solar saros is linked to Lunar Saros 132.

Umbral eclipses

Umbral eclipses (annular, total and hybrid) can be further classified as either: 1) Central (two limits), 2) Central (one limit) or 3) Non-Central (one limit). The statistical distribution of these classes in Saros series 139 appears in the following table.

Classification	Number	Percent
All Umbral eclipses	55	100.00%
Central (two limits)	55	100.00%
Central (one limit)	0	0.00%
Non-central (one limit)	0	0.00%
