From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

An exeligmos is a solar eclipse cycle that is a triple Saros, with the advantage that it has nearly an integer number of days, so the next eclipse will be visible at locations near the eclipse that occurred one exeligmos earlier, in contrast to the Saros, in which the eclipse occurs about 8 hours later in the day or about 120° to the west of the eclipse that occurred one Saros earlier. [1]
