It is a mathematical model describing the motion of celestial bodies. A tiny Python script can easily debunk it.Ĭalculating eclipse is done using the ephemeris. They incorrectly believe NASA used the ancient Saros cycle to predict eclipses by calculating the interval between eclipses.
This same procedure is then repeated many times, each for a different time.įlat-Earthers insist that nobody can predict eclipses from the position of the Sun and the Moon. We determine the position of the Sun and the Moon at a time and calculate their elongation to determine if an eclipse happens. Using the current computing power, predicting eclipses is usually done iteratively.
