A partial solar eclipse will occur at the Moon's descending node of orbit on Sunday, June 1, 2087, with a magnitude of 0.2146. 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.

Solar eclipses of 2083–2087[edit]

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.^[1]

The partial solar eclipses on February 16, 2083 and August 13, 2083 occur in the previous lunar year eclipse set, and the partial solar eclipses on May 2, 2087 and October 26, 2087 occur in the next lunar year eclipse set.

Saros 158[edit]

This eclipse is a part of Saros series 158, repeating every 18 years, 11 days, and containing 70 events. The series will start with a partial solar eclipse on May 20, 2069. It contains total eclipses from August 5, 2195 through August 13, 2808; hybrid eclipses on August 24, 2826 and September 3, 2844; and annular eclipses from September 15, 2862 through February 27, 3133. The series ends at member 70 as a partial eclipse on June 16, 3313. Its eclipses are tabulated in three columns; every third eclipse in the same column is one exeligmos apart, so they all cast shadows over approximately the same parts of the Earth.

The longest duration of totality will be produced by member 10 at 4 minutes, 43 seconds on August 28, 2231, and the longest duration of annularity will be produced by member 57 at 6 minutes, 7 seconds on January 25, 3079. All eclipses in this series occur at the Moon’s descending node of orbit.^[2]

Series members 1–8 occur between 2069 and 2200:

Metonic series[edit]

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). All eclipses in this table occur at the Moon's descending node.
