How often is there a full solar eclipse?

Answer 1

There are generally two solar eclipses and two lunar eclipses each year. Sometimes there are more, or fewer; for example, in 2011, there will be no solar eclipses at all. The maximum possible number is 5 per year, which happens very infrequently.

Answer 2

It varies. During the 100 years of the 20th Century (1901 - 2000), there were 228 solar eclipses

and 229 lunar ones, for an average of about 2.3 per year. Any one year may have 2 - 5 of each.

Answer 3

At least two and up to five solar eclipses can occur each year on Earth, with between zero and two of them being total eclipses.

Answer 4

2-3 Times a year.

Answer 5

Typically about once or twice a year.

Every 10 years
