I’m the world's only solar eclipse journalist. I'm the editor of WhenIsTheNextEclipse.com and author of The Complete Guide To The Great North American Eclipse of April 8, 2024 and When Is The Next Eclipse? A traveler’s guide to total solar eclipses 2024-2034.
On Monday, April 8, a total solar eclipse will be seen from within a 115-mile path of totality stretching from northwestern Mexico to southeastern Canada via parts of 15 U.S. states. Everywhere else in North America will see a partial solar eclipse.
Precisely two weeks before, in the early hours of Monday, March 25, a lunar eclipse will occur. It won't be a major observing event.

Since each orbit takes 29.5 days , so a lunar year is 354 days.Or vice versa.
