      Greetings,

      Is there any module for listing upcoming solar and lunar eclipses?

      Thanks,

        I took a quick look for an API because I like science based modules. I didn’t find one in the short time I looked. What I did find were lists of future ( and past) solar and lunar eclipses as well as planetary transits (Mercury will transit the sun on Nov 11).

        If all you want is a list of upcoming events then the dates and times could be hard coded into a module but that’s all that would be displayed.

        Is that what you’re requesting?

            I saw this, too. That’s why I didn’t consider using it.

            This US Naval Observatory Website is undergoing modernization and will be offline starting Thursday, 24 October 2019. The expected completion of work and return of service is estimated as 30 April 2020.

              @Mykle1 Thank you sir, I was wishing for a module that lists upcoming eclipses data including DATE/TIME, SOLAR/LUNAR, LOCATION, DURATION etc. Something like that would be very cool.
