Analysis reveals a 580-year eclipse cycle, suggesting a connection between lunar and solar patterns.
It is shown that the 580-year eclipse cycle occurs due to the modulation of the cycle of Saros (18.03) with a cycle of precession of the plane of the lunar orbit (18.61). The sum of these two cycles gives rise to 580 cycles of eclipses of the moon and sun. A mathematical model of this cycle has been built.
