A partial solar eclipse occurred at the Moon's descending node of orbit on Sunday, August 31, 1913,[1][2] with a magnitude of 0.1513. 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. A partial solar eclipse occurs in the polar regions of the Earth when the center of the Moon's shadow misses the Earth.
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.[3]
It is a part of Saros cycle 114, repeating every 18 years, 11 days, containing 72 events. The series started with partial solar eclipse on July 23, 651 AD. It contains annular eclipses from February 3, 976 AD through June 11, 1192 AD, hybrid eclipses from June 22, 1210 through December 1, 1480, and total eclipses from December 13, 1498 through June 15, 1787. The series ends at member 72 as a partial eclipse on September 12, 1931. The longest duration of totality was 4 minutes, 18 seconds on April 21, 1697.
The metonic series repeats eclipses every 19 years (6939.69 days), lasting about 5 cycles. Eclipses occur in nearly the same calendar date. In addition, the octon subseries repeats 1/5 of that or every 3.8 years (1387.94 days).
