Abstract

The phenomenon of solar and lunar eclipses can be predicted where and when it will happen. The Total Solar Eclipse (TSE) phenomenon on March 09th, 2016 became revival astronomy science in Indonesia and provided public astronomy education. This research aims to predict the total solar eclipse phenomenon from 2016 until 2100. We Used Besselian calculations and Meeus algorithms implemented in MATLAB R2012b software. This methods combine with VSOP087 and ELP2000-82 algorithm. As an example of simulation, TSE prediction on April 20th, 2042 has 0.2 seconds distinction of duration compared with NASA prediction. For the whole data TSE from year of 2016 until 2100 we found 0.04-0.21 seconds differences compared with NASA prediction.
