A Solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, obscuring the view of the Sun from Earth, either partially or totally. Between two and five solar eclipses occur each year, with at least one per eclipse season. Since the Gregorian calendar was instituted in 1582, years with five solar eclipses included 1693, 1758, 1805, 1823, 1870, and 1935. The next occurrence is predicted for 2206. On average, there are about 240 solar eclipses each century.
